I have a 100K+ LOC project in React started in 2015 that's going strong, and I imagine Facebook has much, much bigger projects than that using React. I can't recall a single time during all these years that something would have broken in a non-backwards compatible way. We're on the latest version of React, writing class-based components (with zero intent to move to hooks) and feeling very good about it.

- acemarke 7y agoA lot more than that - roughly 100K now.
