I implore you to checkout create-react-app to get a hello world really quick: https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app npm install -g create-react-app create-react-app my-app cd my-app/ npm start Your sentiment is correct that tooling around these pieces of technology needs to always be first class. React failed miserably, and Vue did an AMAZING job. I'm probably starting to sound like a shill for React.…

Interesting critique. I would highly suggest checking out template literals: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe... Yeah styled.div is a function as you can check out in the mdn docs I linked, it's really cool stuff. Inheritance is done like: const List = styled.ul` li { padding: 10px; } ` const HeavyPaddedList = styled(List)` li { padding: 20px; } ` If you wanted to just change the li you'd…

I don't think it's unreasonable for a designer to object to that - how would you feel if you were presented with a build system that required you to write all your JavaScript inside one big string statement? Maybe it's just me, but I don't find it intuitive at all. `styled` has pr…

I'm a Redux maintainer, and I spend most of my free time answering questions about React and Redux. Yes, since probably early 2016, many tutorials have basically said "you need to learn React and Redux together", and that's the message that a lot of junior devs have been taught. However, my own advice is the same as Dan Abramov's: you should focus on learning React first. Once you understand React thoroughly, then yo…

However, my own advice is the same as Dan Abramov's: you should focus on learning React first. Once you understand React thoroughly, then you'll better understand why a state management lib like Redux _may_ be helpful for your situation. That's not really a fair position to take. It basically allows you to believe that React and Redux don't need to be learned together. Put yourself in the shoes of a CTO at a new star…

> Put yourself in the shoes of a CTO at a new startup Okay, how big is our web application? A few pages with a form? We'll avoid Redux for now. We might even avoid React. It's like anything else: should you set up a Spark cluster if you're only processing Gb's of data? Probably not, but you might need it some day -- so make your best guess.
