This reminds me of that Netflix talk on React [1].<p>In it, the guy first praises React to the heavens, then spends the rest of the session explaining all the ways they had to disable and work around React to get what they wanted with decent performance.<p>It seemed to me like their use case could have been done with jQuery in a few hundred lines. Maybe I missed something.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=g01dGsKbXOk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=g01dGsKbXOk</a>
