On: React is winning by default and slowing innovation

[ikrenji]

so you want to avoid using a framework in order to basically code something in pure JS that does what the framework does? whats the point of that?

[rossant → ikrenji]

The point is to avoid dependency hell and take full responsibility for the entire codebase instead of delegating it to third parties.

[spartanatreyu → ikrenji]

I think the point is to not have to untangle another developer's middleware in a router from a bunch of state when all you needed was an anchor tag.
