I'm saying MobX is not the final answer for React. Behind React is the theory of uni-directional data flow. Observable in MobX looks nice and it fixes uni-directional data flow in JavaScript syntax of assignments. Seeing from ClojureScript and other languages that implemented persistent data structure by default, MobX is just a tricky solution designed for JavaScript. And ClojureScript handle uni-directional data flow well too with persistent data and atom type.
- true_religion 10y agoAh I see. I wasn't saying it is the final answer. It's just a 'good thing' because without it I wouldn't have learned observables to the depth that I did. It's a start... because it brings the concept to Javascript, a language that I'm already familiar with and have a build chain for. If one is going to switch languages, then you can consider the whole sweep of compile-to-JS languages. Elm is pretty nice in that scenario, and pairs well with my use of Elixir on the backend.
- jiyinyiyong 10y agoYeah, agreed.
