You missed the point. It's not about what React does, it is the "nobody uses jQuery anymore, everybody uses React" syndrome. React doesn't need to do anything as long as we use it.
- smt88 7y agoI think you're attacking a straw man here. The people who want you to get rid of jQuery are mostly arguing that vanilla JS does what jQuery does. As for abstracting the relationship between data and presentation, there is definitely a React bandwagon, but that's kind of the second stage after getting past jQuery.
- tscangussu 7y agoI got your point, but who uses vanilla JS these days when you can just use React, specially when it is not needed?
- DangBigot 7y agoWhy would you not use the most popular web templating tool? What, specifically, are you suggesting as an alternative?
