@foone React is one of the biggest piles of crap I’ve ever seen.
Even the basic premise of it (kind of “let’s build a browser in the browser”) is deeply flawed.
@thomasfuchs yeah that's been my impression too, but a job I'm applying for does some basic react code-a-longs for their tech interviews, so I'd like to be familiar with it.

also me: I need to learn some react basics for a job interviewWHY NOT COMBINE THE TWO? good question, why not?
@foone joke’s on you, there are no simple react web apps.

christ, the first example in the react docs has a minor error.
not giving me a good feeling about the quality of this software
@foone@digipres.club The whole thing is built on top of two massive anti-patterns (the order of calls to methods [useState and useRef, and thus nearly every hooks] changes their outputs, and implementing logic with exceptions [don't look into suspend too much]) and is so complicated to use correctly that they had to release a precompiler to make it bearable. Of course it's absolute garbage.

okay so my first attempt at writing any react code resulted in a hydration error and also my UI elements are rendered black on black, making them invisible

@foone Even "good" React is Byzantine and slow. The good news is the inefficiency creates jobs...

@foone most of the things I do result in a hydration error and I've never used React

@foone does that mean you need to drink more water or?

@foone It took me a moment to figure out that "Hydration error" is an actual thing in react and not just a way of saying it made you spill your drink.

@foone i wouldn't say "obvious", but there is an alternative to the french AZERTY keyboard, BÉPO (it's kinda like the french version of Dvorak), that a bunch of my friends and colleagues use

@chrisjrn handedness is handled (no pun intended) at a different layer

@Baa Yup yup, added that
