Perhaps it would help if you could clarify what you envision a "truly paradigm shifting approach to web dev" might look like? I'm legitimately asking. There's been a near-infinite variety of options tried thus far, bot

Given that the entire Remix team has spent the last several years doing training teaching people how to use React, and building one of the core libraries in the React ecosystem, this seems like a rather off-tangent train of thought and unre

How are you defining "widgets" in this sense, exactly? I'm not quite following what the line of questioning/thinking is here. Like, I could say that React's "components" qualify. Self-encapsulated, reusab

The one-line answer would be: Blitz is an additional abstraction layer on top of Next.js that offers a Rails-style set of conveniences like feature generation, plus a "compile-away" RPC abstraction that hides all data fetching. R

The first issue here is that _nothing like `GtkTreeView` is built into JavaScript or the browser_. Your typical classical desktop framework (Swing, Qt, wxWidgets, WinForms, Gtk) all have a huge available list of widgets with built-in behavi

This is great feedback, thank you! Appreciate the vote of confidence. To maybe help address your concerns a bit: I totally agree that RTK itself is a layer of abstraction that does hide _some_ of what you're used to with writing Redux

Awesome, glad to hear that's working out well! You can thank Lenz Weber ( @phryneas on Github ) for much of that API design, both the APIs themselves and the TS typing. Yeah, let's just say that `createAsyncThunk`'s use of T

I saw in https://codeascraft.com/2021/11/04/mobius-adopting-jsx-while... that you're using Redux Toolkit (which I created and maintain). I'm curious if you have any thoughts on using RTK in general

For built-in syntax parsing, yes - those official plugins just told the parser to enable those specific bits of syntax. Actual plugins for non-standard syntax were all real AST visitor-based modifications, though.

Hi, I'm a Redux maintainer. React has always had "state management" built in in the form of component state: `this.setState` in class components, and `useState/useReducer` in function components. Those work just fine.

This really needs screenshots of what the output looks like, and examples of the features and options.

This post is entirely nonsensical, and I'm confused how something like this ended up on StackOverflow's blog. Language syntax has nothing to do with framework features, and especially things like writing UI components, managing st

Yes, and in fact we even have a demo of our new RTK Query data fetching API (part of our official Redux Toolkit package) being used with Svelte: https://redux-toolkit.js.org/rtk-query/usage/examples#svelte

There's many reasons to have a JS compilation step: - Still targeting legacy browsers like IE11 - Using React / JSX syntax - Using TypeScript - Using other brand-new JS syntax that hasn't trickled out to wider support yet - U

FWIW, today we specifically teach and recommend the React-Redux hooks API as the default, and one of the major reasons is that it works _so_ much better with TypeScript than the earlier `connect` API: https://redux.js.org/tu

FWIW, our standard recommended Redux usage patterns for the last couple years have specifically _not_ needed switch statements to determine how to handle an action, because our official Redux Toolkit package has a `createSlice` API that let

Sweet! As an FYI for later reference, Lenz Weber has a Remark plugin that compiles TS to JS in code samples - we use that in the Redux Toolkit docs. I think Orta Therox may have something similar going on with his "Shiki Twoslash"
