I’ve worked on extremely complex projects (many hundreds of endpoints, many TB of data). React definitely does not scale for those at all. It has a niche for a few use cases but it’s terrible for most I have found.

It’s all about applying the correct solution to the problem and that isn’t the web if it involves react.

React scales for Facebook level traffic, I doubt there are many use cases where projects need to scale React to serve more users than Facebook
Facebook does a few very simple things lots of times a second.

It doesn’t scale to lots of different things regularly.
