I use Svelte + SvelteKit or Astro. Would happily recommend Solid.js for those who prefer functional JSX.

The only reason I write React is because of decisions other people made before I signed up to help maintain their project. In my experience, it’s a costly endeavor for everyone involved in every conceivable way.

Interesting article. Feels like React has become completely engrained in the modern web. I admit I fall back to it frequently. 

What are you using?

Happy for you! They've also done a great job keeping backward compatibility for the most part.

Just know that React is no longer competitive on the rendering front, and that a framework doesn't necessarily need a big ecosystem to excel now that web standards have caught up.

When I first started using React coming Vuejs, PHP, jQuery, bootstrap, and vanilla js/html - geez React was absolute amazing to work with and still enjoy today, with Nextjs sometimes. 

I personally don't see a reason to switch to another client component framework. Ecosystem is great and it's easy for me

Remix is no longer. Merging into React Router 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yeah, I think the author might not have known about the New Architecture announcement when he wrote this post.

That said, would love to see more people giving the competition a try and doing in-depth comparisons with Lynx, NativeScript, Tauri, Capacitor, Cordova, etc.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

I do agree that React is overused.
I currently just read the React Native part and don't agree with it at all. It definitely doesn't compare to native in terms of overall performance but it's the best cross-platform solution. The new architecture is promising to shrink the performance gap.

I agree with the sentiment, but disagree with the solution. I whole-heartedly disagree with the idea of server-side rendering for things that should be static assets. It adds cost and complexity for perceived performance benefits when there are other ways to ensure accessibility and performance on the client.

if you're not vibing with react, just go ahead and reinvent the wheel. who needs stability and community support anyway?

well, if react is too mainstream, we can always go back to tables and inline styles, right? super innovative!

Use next.js instead for building web applications
