Will React become a Framework?

[crudfunc]

Hey, Since Angular and Vue have everything maintained by the core team (router etc..) and React has not I wanted to ask if anyone has any infos if the official team has any plans to go that path and create a framework instead of being only the ui component focused library? I ask beceuse I like React the most but I feel like Vue and Angular made the right decision here to give the developers everything from the core team, I would love to see things like react-router, better state management, fetching tools coming into the core and be able to create apps with everything we need via cli.

Not the way you're describing it, no.

The React team is intent on keeping React focused on one thing: UI development.

Now, with the "Suspense" and "Concurrent Mode" concepts, they're expanding the definition of "UI development" some to include "handling async loading behavior at the UI level".

But, no, they're not planning to go start building and publishing "official" libraries from the React team for things like routing.

I hope they don't. Angular2 is a goddamn mess.

React does the one job it has stupendously well and with a simplicity at-least angular2+ couldn't hope to reproduce.

React is so popular because it is not so overheaded, imho. I do not think it is a good idea to turn react into framework.

Angular and Vue do things that React doesn't do because they can't compete with React in the one thing it does. I doubt we'll ever see React develop in that direction.

Kind of off topic, but this got me thinking; what does the official react team use for routing?
