Could you elaborate on that? My experience with React has been that most of the 'shiny time-waste' problems don't arise from, say, React + Redux, but from the itch to use all the 'cool stuff' that people are talking about. I've wasted so much time configuring apps to get hot module reloading to work, adding all sorts of redux middleware, using react-router as it transitioned to a completely new react-router, working with higher order components, using some immutable library, etc. Many of these things were not necessary for the stuff I was building. In fact, in a bunch of cases I could've just used React and nothing else. I suspect if I'd done that, it wouldn't have felt as much like premature optimization. Thankfully most of these projects were personal, and learning a lot about the React ecosystem has been fun. Still, lots of premature optimization. I'm very curious to hear where you ran into issues.
