So I've looked into React and the problem I have with it is that it's lauded as "simple" because it's "just a view kit." However, there are an infinite amount of questions one has to answer when starting a new project: - I see that state management libraries are in a lot of tutorials and talked about online. Which one do I pick? Redux? MobX? Something smaller? Do I skip it entirely? What are the consequences of that? - Okay, so how do I deliver "pages" in React? Do I pull in React Router as well? I saw an article on using Hooks to replace RR. Do I do that instead? - How do I handle authentication? Do I use JWT? Which library? I saw some comments on Hacker News that says JWT is terrible. Do... do I pick something else? I kind of need auth so I cant's skip it. What if I need to do OAuth? - Do I use TypeScript? What is the scope of work for implementing it into my build pipeline? Is it worth it? - Build tools. Sure, WebPack is the most popular but a lot of tutorials are for outdated versions. A lot of the times I'm googling "how do I do X webpack" and just get different JSON blobs to plug in. It's just... so much. I just don't care. I don't want to configure Gulp or WebPack or whatever. I don't want to extensively research every dependency I have to pull in to get a working app. There is Facebook's create-react-app and that's a good start. Vue and Angular don't suffer as much from this because they focus more on being complete packages. Doesn't matter to me though. Phoenix LiveView provides enough interactivity for me.
