There's a point that I haven't seen made on the thread yet. React requires a very particular mental model. You define a state for your app and your view is a function of that state. Most of nuance of writing react has to do with deciding where state belongs and how to model it. This is very powerful. I believe it is worth learning React to grok this model alone, and you can absolutely apply it to other frameworks and even other aspects of building apps.
