In my opinion, this article a hilarious joke, a satire. I mean...

This is very cool. Note: the chalk-on-chalkboard sound comes to my speakers as harsh static.


Ah I'm sorry for that. That was a bug from an earlier version that saturated the javascript event loop and caused the microphone to not work properly. This should be fixed as of last month's version.

Sorry again!


Is there a good forum for React users to ask questions and discuss best practices?


You might want to look at https://www.meteor.com/. There aren't a lot of alternatives to it that do such a good job of providing its benefits:

- Zero-config build tool

- Accounts system included

- Live reactive data system included

- Easy interface to React, Svelte, Vue

- Can use its out-of-the box MongoDB integration or integrate with any database via GraphQL

- Great community forum

A new version 3.0 is almost done.


I wouldn't consider Meteor a "backend" tool, but it is still great for a quick start and rapid development. If you're just establishing your project and there's no strong development expertise and culture in your company, Meteor will suit you quite well as it removes the hurdle of making a ton of decisions that will affect your productivity.


Meteor is fullstack, so you can reuse code on the front- and backend, which is nice for validation and business logic.

In the last ten years I worked for more than a dozen startups that based their business successfully on Meteor. Some of them got big and none has regretted it.

I have worked with Nuxt.js, Sapper (now Sveltekit), Play Framework an many more; all great, but for many projects I would still consider Meteor the strongest contender.


Is there a legend for the shading? I wasn't quite sure what shades of color meant what amounts of light pollution.


Will you be HIPAA-compliant?


Meteor is a very strong option. It will build anything you throw at it. It has built-in accounts so you can get your login/auth system running very quickly. It has a lot of options for live data if your app needs it - your users see relevant updates on their screens without needing to refresh the window. It supports React, graphQL, MongoDB, and other view frameworks/databases.


You're working at one of the best companies in the world and you want to go back to college? Why? You're doing great.


In the author's footnote #1, he praises Svelte and Vue. So the whole article boils down to "Don't use React, use Svelte/Vue instead."


> You inherit an asset that you are forced to liquidate in order to afford the inheritance taxes on that asset.

Do you live in France by any chance?


This is true in the US as well. Though it only affects people with larger inheritances.

Out of scope for this comment, but there are several ways these taxs is avoided.


Nope, South Africa.
