For smaller projects I was very productive with Backbone + Backbone Stickit. With react the earliest projects I tried it with never really had satisfactory standardized data sourcing/binding. Now I've mostly been using the tanstack/react query library for the last few years and it's productive enough. I think I'll be more productive if/when I switch to something like svelte or live view, though. Modern react apps feel like building an app twice to build it once IMO.
