The comments are pretty bad both ways, i.e. this whole thread is shameful: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=11152864" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=11152864</a><p>There&#x27;s little constructive purpose for these bad faith remarks in threads like that in general (I&#x27;ve probably been guilty of some in the past myself). No need to slam one thing to raise up another - let tools stand on their own merit, and criticize based on that alone.<p>FWIW, I&#x27;m pretty heavily involved in the Angular community, and I respect what Facebook has done in creating &amp; fostering React - I keep an eye on it because I love just about all things frontend on the web, even if I don&#x27;t use React much (although I might use React Native for an app for a community I am a part of).
