I did a code experiment to solve a sort problem for a shoe store example by color, size, Etc. I hand wrote the HTML, the CSS Style and all the JS for the form and sorting 3 pages 30 items took me a half hour. Then using react? In 4 hours I still don't have the look or sort right.

I guess you came across some with some reactjs rendering problems, rather than the algorithm itself 馃

I'm still trying to figure it out to be honest but I do think it was something syntactical in the 30 entries for the sort.

A few years ago, react was sold to a project I was working on as an absolute necessity. The project was, briefly, four web pages with a little dynamic content. An afternoon鈥檚 work. Uncounted person-hours later, it never worked. I never understood how it was supposed to.

I think the point is it's not meant to make sense. People are struggling with CSS bored with HTML don't want to learn JavaScript but Frameworks are fine? They don't know what they're doing and they don't care about the web. Or they're made to do it in order to keep a job. Shame.

Which reinforces my point: Nobody cares how you did it. They only care that you did it.

Yeah, but that doesn't change the most important feels in the room other than my kitty, and that's I care. I didn't succeed at doing it with react, just the "right" way, in far less time. If I din't know any better I'd blame confirmation bias ;-)
