I think it’s more a matter of how the JS community has grown in general. The whole “class” thing is something a lot of us brought into it when we came from other OOP languages, but in 2023 it is very rare that it is “better” to build a “class” than to simply build the functions you need.

As far as I know you can still trundle on with some of the old react, but at the same time, things change. It’s not like you’re coding C# similar to how you were 10 years ago either. I know that having been away from it, it was interesting to see everyone using “var” instead of types as an example.
