I think it's alright, the real problem that I've noticed is that a lot of developers tend to misconstrue what they need and bloat their projects in amazingly unmanageable way because it 'the way to do things according to random source x' which could be some weird abuse of state management systems like or redux or general application design

FWIW I've seen it in many projects outside of the react/js world as well

IMO there's been a general drought in books/material on reasoning/thinking about software in general in-favor of the framework/library centric mania we have now which focus on the least interesting aspects of the field -- the cynic in me thinks this is due to how we hire people but there's likely more to it than that
