I really like React. I write a lot of it. But I was introducing my gf to react and had her read the documentation, cause that’s how I learned. First, it’s really easy to ignore the beta docs and end up learning class components. She wasn’t happy when I explained to her that what she had just learned is pretty out of date and not at all what the ecosystem uses. Second, there’s no simple explanation of forms! Oh sure it’s buried in the long intro tutorial but I’d love a one page tutorial on forms in react.<p>Also linting rules got way out of hand. Like a bunch of devs in the mid 10’s really decided to make linting the most annoying bunch of nitpicks around const, parameter naming, and other stuff that has no value. There’s a lint rule about naming the error parameter in catch “error”, not “err” or “e”. Who cares about this shit???
