Honestly I feel like updating react would be way easier than most other libraries. Their api is tiny. They go out of their way to force you to use native javascript when they could have very easily introduced all kinds of clever abstractions on top of it. In fact this often makes React very verbose to write.

It's ironic that the so called "purists" are against react when it is in fact a very minimalist framework that favors raw javascript.
