If you take a close look at both flows you will see that point 1 and point 2 actually explain each other. :-)<p>If you use React in production and <i>don’t</i> use a bundler, you should. If you <i>don’t</i> use React in production and <i>do</i> use a bundler, perhaps you shouldn’t because it will distract you from learning process. Does that help?<p>The “need” for flowcharts like this comes from lots of misleading information on the internet about React, not from React itself.<p>Thank you for your comments!
