I would say that React is the present but that the future is a circle back to progressive enhancement. I'm seeing more high-profile JS developers jumping off the front-end framework bandwagon and back towards progressively enhancing existing HTML. I think we're going to see frameworks emerge which make progressive enhancement the priority and make it easier. So the whole JS templating engine race that has been going on for the last few years will simply not be important any more.
- insin 11y agoI feel like React - or something like it - is part of the path back to progressive enhancement, as you can use the same components to generate the initial HTML on the server and to enhance it when JavaScript is available on the client. As you say, React is the present, and it's making progressive enhancement easier right now.
