That's the entire point. Software is eating the world, and there's not enough talented engineers. We can't just wish thousands more talented engineers into existence, so instead we have to come up with tools that will make people that only have 3 months of coding school under their belt and money as their only motivation reasonably productive.
If you're a god engineer, you have experience of working around constraints. That's just another one.
- edgyquant 5y agoOh yes, React is the language of “talentless hacks.” This elitism is gross and wrong and you should rethink your outlook on the world if you believe this.
- golergka 5y agoElitism? I consider myself to be one of them.
- nnoitra 5y agoThis is not true. It's not that React was specifically designed so that incompetent programmers can create apps. It's that with any good framework or technology people will always flock to the popular one. This is the exact same reason why Java is bashed and Linus prefers C programmers. An excellent programmer will write excellent code using React, in Java or in C++. It's not about the tool, it's about the one wielding it.
