"I literally have zero memory of how we used to build forms in the pre-React times"
Don't mean to pick on the author, but these sorts of comments scare the shit out of me. React is fine for what it was originally billed as (a library for building UI components), but the way people use it to take over the entire web stack is bananas. Definitely not needed for a static blog, LOL.
P.S. Use LitElement anyway, not React. The future is Web Components.
- desert_boi 6y agoThe meme about Web Components being the future is older than React at this point.
- stevens32 6y agoI was/am pro web components but the likelihood of it "being the future" seems extremely grim. No one's happy about front end tooling, but for the moment it still beats the alternatives. Shadow dom is hellish to work with at scale - I think what a lot of the critics may miss is that much of the "why" of modern front-end is that it scales with team size.
