Learn Elm and you'll see React's shortcomings clearer. They don't render twice but that is just the tip of the iceberg.
Be warned though, exiting the cave is painful.
- jemmyw 2y agoI've used elm. It's not that great. In many ways it has the same shortcomings as react but far worse. That is you find yourself wanting to do something as yet unsupported (which we often do because otherwise why write new software in the first place) you have to break out of it's abstraction. Except doing so is 10x harder with elm, and the community around it is so much smaller you can't find the answers. Also, after I personally had moved on, there was something of a tension between the community and the authors. Maybe that's resolved, although I'd suspect for some the resolution was to no longer be part of it.
