I think the point is React does not provide the DOM, the browser does. Unlike MVC frameworks in languages that do provide their own UI. Smalltalk being the grandfather of that.
- Spivak 2y agoYes but the DOM is the render target for React and hence the V. Just because it's a complicated way to talk to the screen doesn't mean it's not doing that.
- andrewflnr 2y agoAre you saying that you do need to directly specify pixels to count as a View? I don't consider that a useful engineering principle. If not, I can't see how what you said changes anything. I saw their point roughly the same as you did, and I think it's bad.
