Reactive UIs may have been made popular on the web, where they're an absolute nightmare, but native code does them better still.

Best time I ever had in a job was writing WPF applications in C# using ReactiveUI. Once we really understood the underlying model we were plugging stuff together so easily. It is a really good model, but I can't see how React is a good example of it.

Of course I had lots to complain about then, WPF had bugs, C# has a number of big problems, but it was, overall, very nice.
