Have you ever actually used React? I ask because the only way I can think of you writing the things you did is if you lack understanding of, well, react fundamentals. I don't think you understand what React does, or why or how it works if you think that react's state management is just some redundant complexity that it added just for shits and giggles.
- wruza 5y agoIf you mean React as a library, then yes, not at work though. If you mean React as the community does it, well no, too much repetitive code to do basic things. I don't think you understand what React does I’m afraid that anything I say here would lead you to think that I was jQuery, but no, I never wrote a line in it. I had these conversations before, so please excuse me for this digression. I know how React works, and I could build it myself, barring some optimizations. You are right, I don’t “get it”, but not in a sense of how it works, but why it does that. It solves the issue that exists in jQuery and other call-manual-update approaches, but that is not an issue in what I worked. It reinvents a wheel that was already there when it was born. I spent enough time with it and its community to check these ideas. I’d like to hear what you have to say though. Maybe there is something I missed.
