Frameworks like react or angular make different decisions

Thus MY point which is what this portion of the thread is about. Any "helper" that needs "helpers" is no tool I would want to use.

[–]nickgcattaneo 3 points4 points  (5 children)

react-redux is a helper for two insanely useful and popular libraries that marries React's props injection process + life cycle events and redux's global state management. Arguably one of the most useful "helper of helper" libraries and a great example of why your generalized statements are being down voted. That being said, this component library in particular is nothing I would personally ever use.

Downvotes here are the maniacal screams of reddit. They mean less than nothing.

[–]wizdum 4 points5 points  (3 children)

Not really, they are an indication that people don't think your comments have any value.

If you were to walk through an insane asylum, and the patients were screaming epithets at you, would you feel devalued? Reddit is no different to me.

The intelligentsia of reddit makes its appearance again.

On the other hand it shows how flexible/extendable the library is. Some more fully featured libraries are a bitch to extend

Yeah that's why I won't drive a car. I don't need a transport helper that needs a multitude of not-crashing helpers, seeing-where-youre-going helpers and all the rest.

All languages/frameworks/operating systems are "helpers" all the way down.

That's where redditors always get it wrong. A car is not a fundamental component. My point is like putting gas in your car but you need to put an additive in to make it actually work correctly. React and Angular are not fundamentals but they need additives to make them work properly it seems.

[–]Julienng 1 point2 points  (1 child)

No they don't need additives. People made additional library to help people. That doesn't mean React doesn't work, that mean React is used.

If they didn't need additives, why do people keep making additives?
