React is not responsible for the stack of poorly maintained third party packages one chooses to use alongside it. You don't actually need a router, or redux, or other "state management" nonsense. Your application code can/should handle that stuff, and it won't break, and it won't change unless you change it.

> React is not responsible for the stack of poorly maintained third party packages one chooses to use alongside it. It's not whether or not it's responsible. It's whether you suffer this pain if you choose a different framework/platform/language. Coming from a Django/Python perspective - the Javascript ecosystem post-npm just feels pathological in this regard.
