I don’t know why some people are hating in the comments, I’m assuming most are React devs and this is similar of C++ devs hating on Rust as they would like to be in business and not feeling left behind after all years spent learning the old tool (React/C++ in this situation)? I’ve used Astro years ago, Astro+Solid is one of the best combo for building fast sites, I would choose that (or Sveltekit) over the trashy React any day if I would have to choose, or better, no javascript at all.

  >The irony is palpable! If I got a penny for every time someone points out an “irony” when it isn’t. Hating on a new tool right off the bat without going on an extensive testing because you feel “threatened” that your knowledge in the old tool won’t be needed anymore, isn’t like when you (or in this case myself) dislike the old tool because of how cumbersome it is after actually using it for a while, and you try to avoid using it as much as possible. The only reason React is still around is because it’s popular and mostly are looking for jobs, but it’s definitely not the best nor the fastest out there.

    I agree about React, I use it at my day job and the ecosystem is huge, but Solid is winning my heart these days. I just don't agree that it's React devs being curmudgeons, I think that's just HN being HN. So to me, your feelings are ironic, maybe in an Alanis Morissette type of way.
