Reactivity like this predates React Hooks. It doesn't have the hook rules/stale closures etc... No dependency arrays, useRef, or useCallback. It's a very powerful model and very different. The similarities are surface level but aren't without benefit. Composable declarative data patterns, read/write segregation, traceable state dependencies.

Some people position it more like, "Solid makes Hooks the way they should have been in React". Personally understanding how React works this doesn't make sense. But I think it might be helpful for people just approaching the framework.
