But why would OP or I switch away from React when we believe it's mature, stable, fast enough, and has a huge community, resources, and ecosystem?
And perhaps most important of all: it's the tool we know.
- MarcelOlsz 2y agoI only responded because they said they're using vanilla React which for some reason in my head instantly translated to "old version of React before it started sucking", and replied accordingly. >But why would OP or I switch away from React when we believe it's mature, stable, fast enough, and has a huge community, resources, and ecosystem? Yeah fair enough.
- lopatin 2y agoBy vanilla React I meant that I don't use the new Next.js / SSR stuff and instead build a JS file.
- MarcelOlsz 2y agoYeah I only realized that later :P
- floydnoel 2y agowhat do you use for routing? I built Routerino for just exactly this purpose, to use with vanilla React. maybe it'll be useful for you! https://www.npmjs.com/package/routerino https://www.npmjs.com/package/routerino
- lopatin 2y agoI actually use the history API. I've been thinking about modernizing by replacing it with React Router. I'll check out Routerino also.
- Atotalnoob 2y agoReact router is a nightmare. Lots of massive paradigm shifts with little backwards compatibility. I’ve gone through like 3-5 times where there is some massive changes between versions. Right now they are pushing some new routing mechanisms…
- xcrunner529 2y agoBecause it’s not and people hate these sites…I’m sorry…”apps” you make.
- lucsky 2y agoRight, and people would obviously love those same apps if they were written with Vue instead. Of course.
- MarcelOlsz 2y agoI think that user prefers just HTML.
- xcrunner529 2y agoThey’ll love something that loads fast and feels fast even if they’re on a cellular connection at the gas station. Such as me trying to load a gas station app to pay at the pump in a rural area and waiting forever for each step due to the size.
- phist_mcgee 2y agoI'd say some SWEs hate the sites. The majority of laypeople don't care at all.
- aerhardt 2y agoAren't you brave, presumptuously insulting random people on the internet like that behind a fake name?
