It could also be that the mediocre typescript support was getting in my way too much - that part was very frustrating. I don’t think of it as a direct comparison to react or the react community though. There are other frameworks like it though and in my experience, it is better than they are.

A large team sharing an ember code base might actually be more productive than one using an ad hoc framework of all the other tools I like. Back when I used symfony in php land for example (comparable to laravel), I loved its conventions in the context of a large team and rarely thought about the times it got in the way.
