While not incompatible with ECS, the DOM and this renderer go all-in on the javascript event-loop. You would have to write your own run loop, which executes the systems on every frame (ideally creating a DAG and executing in parallel while possible), and leave the event loop behind, with all the niceties like `onClick`, to go full ECS. Otherwise you'll create some Frankenstein monster of part ECS, part event-loop, part declarative React.

Additionally, you can throw OOP in that mix as well, because Three.js has it's own whole OOP-style framework, that you're strapping declarative React on top of with this renderer. Reminds me of Jonathan Blow's talk on the end of civilization via endless layers of abstraction[1].

I really think, when it's ready, a Bevy[2]-style system either native or compiled to WASM with WebGPU will be ideal.

And while I'm airing opinions (forgive me), I think writing shaders now is like SQL 30 years ago. Developers left optimizing difficult--according to them--SQL to database administrators by abstracting it away into ORMs. If history is any indicator, I think we'll be having the same arguments on Hacker News 30 years from now about 3D frameworks vs writing shaders directly as we're having now about ORMs vs writing SQL directly.
