I can say the same about Angular, you really need to know how Angular works to know what you're doing. That's the whole issue with these frameworks. At least React doesn't try to abstract too much

We don't use React, and I would not choose to do so, but LLMs + Compiler make it a great default for shops starting new apps.
- azangru 1y ago> At least React doesn't try to abstract too much What do you mean? The DOM is abstracted away. Hooks are magical, and don't work like regular javascript functions. The scheduler, and the concurrent features are magical. The string pragmas are magical. It is all getting more and more magical, and you need a linter to keep you in line with the magic.
- dvt 1y agoIt's actually kind of funny how React devs quite literally don't know how HTML or JavaScript actually works (let alone HTTP or TCP/IP). React is an absolute trash-heap of abstraction that just reinforces its dominance because of popularity, similar to Java in the early-mid 2000s. It's the definition of sunken cost fallacy: I mean, heck, I genuinely believe React is garbage, and yet I use it for just about every project because of its ecosystem and lazy "npm install <whatever-i-need>" muscle memory.
