So create a web component that wraps draft.js?

So your answer is to require pulling in an entire view library just to make a simple rich text editor work? Also, I'm disheartened by the simple, anonymous down votes my comments are receiving rather than actual rebuttals. At least you had the decency to respond.

You added absolutely nothing to the conversation. If that particular editor doesn't meet your needs, there are many, many others out there. Just use one of them, and quit complaining.

Yes, but alas you have so much greater things to care about than us, that it's surprising you even took the time to comment on this thread.

The time I took to write this comments are meaningless compare of the time that it would took me to watch the whole thing. And what I have to say is more important than anything else for me.

No, it's not. Not when what you're saying is doing absolutely nothing for the conversation, and really is just shitting on the work of others to make yourself look cool.

I'm crossing my fingers for the "one more thing" moment when they will announce that nuclide for React is now available, but it doesn't look likely.

I thought nuclide was released several months ago.

It was, but the React support is still pending.

"No, it's not."

You don't tell what to believe.

The extreme fanboyism of this site makes me cringe so hard that it triggered me. Can't be helped.

Makes sense. I'd be proud if I was behind React and humble if I was behind Angular

You're comparing the wrong things. The correct comparison would be with Polymer, which Google is pouring far more resources into than Angular.

Citation needed.

I'm more and more convinced that Facebook is reinventing Adobe Flex. Not sure whether this is good or bad.

A big difference is that Facebook is using React in their own products. I don't think they will be as happy to dump the whole thing as soon as there is a slight change in winds, like Adobe did with Flex. Flex, although still alive thanks to the efforts of a group of unsung heroes, is not a platform on which I would build anything new.

To be fair, so did Adobe in a lot of theirs. They did bet hard on Flash as a platform; it just wasn't a very good bet, and very little of it went into improving the actual runtime. Instead, they tried putting sugar on top (e.g. Flex) which obviously just added to the bloat. That said, some of that sugar had some interesting ideas going for them, lacking execution notwithstanding.

Obviously I agree with you, I would never build anything new with Flex, or target the Flash runtime; but that's not to say there aren't good lessons to be learned and concepts to be snatched. Hence, the "not sure if good or bad" comment – it depends on what you steal I guess.

Wow the comments in here are awful. How about some constructive discussions folks? If you're not impressed by React or don't think it's useful, what, if anything, can we say or show you to convince you otherwise? I'm assuming that's what you're here - for knowledge - otherwise, why are you here? I'm glad there have been no major announcements. This isn't an Apple keynote. We should want our tools to be predictable, s…

"I'm assuming that's what you're here - for knowledge - otherwise, why are you here?" To look cool to other developers by shitting all over something.

I don't think anybody ends up looking cool -- more like an idiot.

So it's mostly "to vent my frustration for other aspects of my life in needless negativity and aggression in an unrelated topic".
