The Node/JS/React world is full of thought leaders who gain reputation and clout by releasing new tools/libraries, convincing the masses to adopt them and pay for expensive consulting/courses on them (instead of just having adequate documentation to begin with), and then abandoning it altogether to move onto their next "product" to "sell". Rinse and repeat. It's why if you're not paying attention, JS best practices will seem completely different in one year's time. Kind of a pessimistic view, but I do think this is what happens.
