There's a react module for modals :) https://github.com/rackt/react-modal But yeah, in a similar fashion to angular, modifying the DOM outside the 'blessed' render()ing is a pathway to darkness. You can

I'd argue that none of those are frameworks: they're utility belts.

ReactJS + webpack, though I've used Angular and browserify in the past. 1. It's just a component framework. It doesn't do the kitchen sink, like Angular does. A couple hours reading the spec and implementing a small test case

So many valuations in the last 2 decades. Netscape, Pets.com, Tumblr, Instagram, Klout, Worldcom, AOL, Broadcast.com, Solar City. I hear about them monthly. But no real global impact by any of those 'valuations' can be seen. Seems

1. Lisp doesn't have built in pattern matching, either. But, just like Lisp, there are libraries out there for it[0]. 2. Would probably make more sense if it were a statically typed language. Don't most dynamically typed FPL need

Not only that, but so did monsters. And monsters had to eat. At one point in beta, enough of the wildlife had been killed, and enough of the middle-difficulty monsters had been killed, and there was a bug where town guards didn't work

Certainly. But if object instantiation / garbage collection is your bottle neck, you should be using an object pool, anyways. You wouldn't put _every_ object in an object pool, though - only those which obviously impact performanc

Composition over inheritance wins, so hard. (edit: downvote for a typically well-thought-of idiom, especially with regard to a language like js? .. if you disagree, why not talk about it?)

'class' is one of the most commonly mentioned but least useful constructs available in ES6. Things that win out over it? Destructured assignment, sane module syntax, arrow functions, true block scope variable declaration, and cons

Having a well defined and documented API is not an artifact of splitting development roles between front and back end. There are many, many projects out there with split roles that have terribly defined and ill-documented server interfaces.

It's expanding the language, but adding such sorely needed features. I've been working in it for a little while now, and egads is it painful to go back. Block scoping, arrow functions, and destructured assignments are all a godsen

Why build in list traversal functions? Some people prefer lodash, some prefer underscore, others prefer VanillaJS. It seems like just a little sugar, but adding a sugar a little at a time gets addictive.
