How do people feel about using Facebook's technology like React in light of all this controversy? Is there any concern that there is cross over between the data harvesting and the engineering behind React etc.?
- ch4s3 9y ago> cross over between the data harvesting and the engineering behind React I'm not sure I understand what you mean here.
- beeskneecaps 9y agoReact does not harvest data.
- matthewmacleod 9y agoI'm honestly struggling to figure out what you even think might be the issue here – is it that you think React might be harvesting data from people's projects?
- Retroity 9y agoReact is an open-source freely-licensed javascript library that you can self-host, so I don't see the problem with it just because it's maintained by Facebook.
- saintPirelli 9y agoThe worst thing Facebook could do to React is seize support and development (or make future development proprietary).
- a_humean 9y agoIts a JavaScript library used for providing an abstraction over DOM manipulation, and is open source. It doesn't phone home to facebook with your mother's maiden name, and it doesn't have a single line of network code in its source code. Worse that could happen is facebook stops supporting it for some reason and a lot of engineering talent dedicated to it evaporates.
