Comment Comment by EdwardDiego Okay, I'm verrrry out of date with frontend dev, but didn't React used to be a framework?Now they're recommending you use frameworks? That are presumably built on top of React?So what is React exactly these days? Feels like it's a shadow DOM renderer that's become a defacto API?Like, you could use a component written for one React based framework, in another React based framework, and it'll just work?Does React still provide routing and/or state management? Or has that been devolved to frameworks?Wait a minute, has React become the J2EE of front-end? parent EdwardDiego 1 year ago
