> If you're using Webpack, React, Redux, Typescript and NPM to render basically static content you're doing it wrong. Yet this is what everyone does and what romaniv means. We have good tools for applications that people use for static content. Here's my reasoning: As someone looking for a Web Dev job, your static site built with Handlebars or server-rendered HTML won't impress anyone. Build it with React/Redux/Immutable and suddenly you get more interviews or at least more hits. This has happened to me. Therefore, when those people finally get employed they'll just keep building with the tools that got them the job and never think if they really need them. If you switched a complex React app to a server-rendered Node/Rails/Django one, how much more less work would you have to do?
