Yes, good point. Even within React, there's been a big change from class components to functional components and hooks. I imagine LLMs could help with some of that.

I just ported 10k loc of react classes to function components using gpt-4o. The changes are mostly trivial, but would be fairly time consuming and tedious to make. It took me a few hours instead of a few days.

Isn't this already possible with codemods?

[imvetri]

No. Nobody can understand how to use code mods. I could not. But I'm not sure about others.

My view is that those engineers in fb are no longer there to promote and support that project. Or they would have migrated to learning ai ml

[bavell]

Fair enough, I've never used them either!

[imvetri]

How much did it cost?
