Frontend: - "vanilla" React (no Next.js or any other framework-y bloat) - MUI - React Router (v5 because v6 is a pain) Backend: - Node - Typescript - Express - Prisma or Sequelize - Sometimes Django/DRF in lieu of the above -

Completely agree. Class components are so beautifully simple. Hooks have infuriating edge cases and are so bizarre they need ESLint plugins to remind people how they work.

THANK YOU. Very well said. I've been annoyed by hooks since they came out and you described my sentiments perfectly.

Both. Airborne training is "safe" in the sense that they thoroughly teach you all the steps and do lots of ground training before getting in a plane. But by no means does that mean your body won't get wrecked by doing jumps.

Right there with you. I've been building React apps full time since 2016. I used to convince people to switch to React because of how easy it was to learn and how quick it was to get through the docs. Props, state, setState, done. I&#x

I have the same complaint about hooks. Most people seem to ignore that tidbit, but to me it's really frustrating. Plus I recently hit more hook issues when putting a setInterval inside a useEffect. There's no way to do a normal di

Just want to say thanks for mentioning django-ninja. I hadn't heard of it. It looks exactly what I've been wishing was out there. Django is just so good, but the lack of type hints make FastAPI super attractive, so django-ninja se

For a good while I thought I was the only one who is against hooks. It's good to see there are two of us. By the looks of the other comments here, maybe even three.

Very well said. I've been using React since it came out, and have been pushing back on Hooks since they came out. Class components are dead simple. A class, a setState method, this.props, this.state, and some lifecycle methods. SO easy

Yep. And isolated functions are a solution, but sometimes it just makes way more sense for that function to be a method of a class. And for the function component to be a class component. I think there's space for both types of compone

Just chiming in to say that I too hope class components will continue to be supported. I worry that they'll announce otherwise in a couple years. Class components are so stupidly simple to read and write. I appreciate the work put into

> You use the word "simple," but it sounds like you mean something more like "familiar." Guilty as charged. I needed to hear that :)

I have not been a fan of hooks thus far, but these are some intriguing examples. Especially the useMemo ones. My complaints about hooks are that with hooks we lose useful tools in our react toolkit: class methods, separate componentDidMount

Django! And django rest framework. To me, both codebases are so readable and so well put together that even if their documentation was bad (which it isn't), you could fully grasp their APIs and how to use their libraries by just readin

Hey thanks! I hadn't gone through that site, but I'm reading https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/build-web-api... now. Looks great! Nice work!

Hi. Sure thing. First off, thank you for what you do. Microsoft is kicking ass these days and I don't want to sound like I'm unappreciative or unimpressed with what you guys are doing. A quick example could be user authentication:

Not "struggling in other areas" but thanks. Been using VS and VSCode for a long time. Don't care that the docs are open source. My issue is that I guess I have high expectations for the official docs of a platform/framew

I’ve gone straight to the official Microsoft docs multiple times to try and get the same experience as when you read the Django documentation, but it’s just not there. Django’s docs explain the what, the why, and more. The Microsoft docs ju

I have mixed feelings about Apollo and GraphQL in general. To go from mature backend frameworks with autogenerated REST APIs to manually writing a lot of boilerplate code just to get a _basic_ GraphQL API running is frustrating. Part of th

That's super interesting. Would you be willing to share some of your background on this? I'm quite curious about this route.

Years ago I visited Jamaica. When nice local people greeted me, to show they were nice they would say "respect", but with an emphasis on the first syllable, like "REE-spect". That's what I want to say to you for pos

Thank you for sharing this. With a 3yo son on the spectrum, many points here resonated with me. It was nice to see at least one other family doing Floortime--we're thrilled with the results we're seeing and are just surprised how

Wondering the same thing myself. They are very different all the way to their core. Angular is a full-blown framework; React is a view library. Angular's API and documentation are (excessively) large; React's documentation can be

Thank you for your reply. Much appreciated. I'm just getting started on this path, and I'm really starting to see that like you said, excellent customer service--not beautiful code or elegantly applied computer science principles,
