Its somewhat amusing to me that in 2025, you can still find comments equating React to hype. I've been using React professionally for 10 years. Can we at least agree its not a new, hyped technology?
IMHO there's exactly two factors when it comes to having success and efficiency with established tech like React or Rails. One is familiarity, the more experience you have, the more you know it, the more you like it, the better you are going to be with it. The other is restraint. The less custom EVERYTHING you make, the easier it will be to maintain and change. If you lack one or god forbid both, you are going to have a bad time. If you have both, probably anything that's not actually bleeding edge will work out well for you.
