- AtlasBarfed 5y agoA couple annotations and a base application class and you're up and running with a REST service. That's considered hard?
- presentation 5y agoTranslated to React: a single render function and you're up and running with a webpage. That's considered hard?
- mdoms 5y agoSpring is a simple MVC framework, it follows the same patterns as similar Ruby, Python, C#, PHP etc frameworks. React very much blazes its own complicated trail.
- Blackthorn 5y agoWell, nowadays anyway. It's come a long way from the point where an AbstractSingletonProxyFactoryBean seemed like a viable solution to a problem in the framework.
- erik_seaberg 5y agoSpring is a powerful but pretty complicated DI framework. That MVC stuff is also there but for many use cases (microservices, batch, CLI) it’s not really helpful.
- ratww 5y agoThat statement is beyond the absurd. The API of React is several orders of magnitude smaller than Spring and similar MVC frameworks with the same feature. There is even a React replacement with feature parity, Preact, that clocks around 3kb.
- guywhocodes 5y agoWe have a basic template that when empty, takes about 20min to compile on a very new laptop, builds to a 200MB+ jar.
- newtwilly 5y agoSomething sounds wrong, but I don't know exactly what you mean by "basic template"? Like a Spring boot example app?
