Why? I hate reactjs and the jsx format... ember is so much more powerful. i know, it's probably not apples to apples. but why patch together 10 different techs to get a web app up and running when ember and ember cli, does it all for you.
PS: I am open to convert over, so convince me :)
- evo_9 11y agoReact is not about doing everything for you. It's about creating discrete pieces that can be composed into more complex UI elements. Ember, Angular, etc, are all doing too much imo. I much prefer the granularity provided by React. Regarding JSX, I was a little put off by some new 'bastard' JS format but all it really does is allow you to write HTML in your JS code and have syntax highlighting and all the benefits of those tags being first class citizens in the language for a change. This allows you to write much more clean HTML inside your JS without a ton of commas and escape characters, etc. I personally think it's worth it, but JSX is optional- you can always write pure JS which is what the JSX crosscospiler spits out for you. Take some time to play around with it, the lightbulb moment hits pretty earlier for most people because this isn't a radical change compared to most of the big JS libraries out there.
