Whats the right choice for building a repacement for an existing app that has survived for 15 years and you want the replacement to last at least another 10? Whats the long term hedge?
- ggregoire 9y agoIf you think Facebook will still be there in 10 years, then you can safely pick React.
- amclennon 9y ago> If you think Facebook will still be there in 10 years, then you can safely pick React. At the same time, you could've made that same argument at some point with Google and AngularJS, Dart, Polymer, etc. Not necessarily a safe bet.
- netcraft 9y agoI completely agree re: sponsoring company - although react seems to be orders of magnitude more popular, so someone is going to have to be supporting these apps that people are creating now you'd expect, right?
