There's a world of options away from React today that have those features. We can't pretend only React has them.

- diegof79 11mo agoAgree, but the article was about comparing React and Backbone. There are a gazillion of options that resolve the same problems: Vue, Svelte, Solid, Lit, etc. Backbone was born as better code organization on top of jQuery and CoffeeScript. It never attempted to solve these issues.
- kdazzle 11mo agoI think Backbone was a bit before Coffeescript. Haha, coffeescript was so hot for a minute

- ironmagma 11mo agoThere are essentially infinitely many JS frameworks. You’ll have to recommend one or two to be taken seriously.
- Muromec 11mo agoVue.js is better react without hooks bullshit and with actual reactivity. Very nice, stable and mature.
- mcv 11mo agoI too prefer Vue over React. I still haven't checked out Svelte, and I'm completely over Angular by now. React looked great when I first used it for something really small. It looked horrific when I used it on a massive project with ridiculous amounts of data and tons of middleware. Although the real horror was the useEffect spaghetti. Vue keeps looking reasonable in every project I encounter it in. Even when people use it poorly, it's never Vue itself that's the problem. Well, maybe when people start working around the reactivity. That can get really bad.
- smrtinsert 11mo agoEven the jquery version looks better: https://justpaste.it/3pz1n https://justpaste.it/3pz1n But to keep in the good graces of our thought leader overlords, let's start solid or svelte.
