But React does actually try to do everything. React components can only compose other React components, and so you have React components all the way down. And if passing data all the way down that tree gets tedious you need to start looking into some sort of Flux/Redux type of data handling solution. Pretty soon you're in-lining your CSS because half the tutorials and 3rd party React components are doing that and nothing you've written plays well with any of your existing code, not to mention the vast sea of code written using other libraries. React is a trap. It works best when you use it everywhere, as Facebook does, but it's not a friendly and open framework when it comes to compatibility with others, especially with coming standards like Web Components.
