> It was such an innovative API that it took the frontend world by storm. Only the React community actually. It's the majority, but I wouldn't equate it with the whole frontend community. I remember when they were introduced - it was during the brief moment(1 year) during which I worked in React. My code-smell-o-meter indicated that this is going to cause problems in the long run. Ultimately it did, since you can't just replace everything with hooks and call it a day, as that is likely to cause massive performance issues.
