I don't understand how professional designers lead to React. It sounds like funding let to more complex design and more complex development, but those two don't lead to each other. I highly doubt many professional designers will insist that you have to implement their design with a specific library, much less do so themselves.
- umvi 7y agoProfessionals are going to use the latest and greatest tools at their disposal, aren't they? For web developers, that seems to be esoteric frameworks (React, Vue, Svelte, Webpack, Babel, etc. etc. etc. whatever the cool kids are using these days) Compared to non-professionals who stick with tried-and-true glue (vanilla js, html, php, python, etc.) It would be like if Jenkins got a sponsorship, so they hire professionals who rewrite the entire thing in Rust because it's the best suited for the job by the professionals' reckoning. Never mind that barely anyone knows Rust compared to Java.
- iudqnolq 7y agoExcept my whole point was that to a designer a professional tool is Photoshop or Sketch or Figma. They're complaining good UI/UX design leads to React, when in reality following UI/UX and dev trends both flow from getting the sponsorship instead of causing each other.
