Why not socket.io for ajax calls?
I primarily use Django/Django Rest Framework as the back end so web-sockets are a pain right now. I'm looking forward to when Andrew Godwin's channel work gets into Django proper where socket.io would make a lot of sense. Unless I'm missing something and socket.io does ajax requests these days? I haven't used it in quite some time.

No one mentioned code sharing between server side and the client side! (There are other ways to achieve this other frameworks/libraries are catching up) If you have a node.js server you can use react for both server side rendering and client side rendering.. So that you get the SS rendering advantages like fast initial page load and SEO but also have a very dynamic web app after the initial render.
Does server side rendering actually provide a boost in SEO these days? I know google renders JS apps (would be pretty silly of them to create angular if they didn't) and indexes SPAs, but am unsure on the other search engines.
Really can't decide to go ahead with an Angular approach (2.0) or use React. I know React is only for the view layer so what are people using with React to do stuff like api calls?

Here's a look at the folder structure we're using for our app: https://i.imgur.com/wc7DyOA.png /actions: Flux action creators /components: These are all the JSX React components (the presentation layer) - so there are subfolders like "pages", "controls", etc. /reducers: These are Redux reducers - they're the logic that handles all of the application state /services: This is what your question was really about.

Honest noob question, what's with all the hype about React? Edit: Awesome replies, thank you!
From my point of view, React brings two important ideas to web app development: 1. The virtual DOM. When I'm writing jQuery-based code, I have to write both a component template and code that updates the DOM in response to input; when I'm writing code for a virtual DOM, the component template is sufficient to update the DOM and I don't have to write that extra code, so there are fewer chances for bugs to creep in. 2.…
Can you share your sublime settings or syntax configuration you are using?

I've been hesitant of Fetch() because of the lack of timeout; has anyone been able to successfully get around this issue?
Personally I don't see a huge problem with either resolving or rejecting with a message about the cause of the result. Others see it differently but they haven't been able to make any progress on a major problem.
If you want to avoid this altogether there's no reason why you can't use a different library.
Just started learning js etc. Was told Angularjs has everything loaded so it's easy for beginners, while React is better for the more experienced who knows how to pull various things together? is this true? if so is there a "React-stack" for me to start with?

I'm a big Angular fan though I've done some React stuff as well. I think a reason to go with Angular 2 is the batteries-included approach (and TypeScript is cool once you get used to it, though certainly not required). With React you do end up having to hunt down libraries for everything beyond the view layer, which can mean a lot of random 3rd party libraries in various states of support. The flipside is the ecosyst…
I think this aspect makes Angular feel more like the "Java EE" of the web world. You can throw an Angular developer at an existing Angular code base and I'm fairly certain he'll know exactly what goes where and how things are strung together without much digging around or documentation required. For enterprises this is a very good thing.
