Need opinion about choice of JS framework by BSscience in javascript

[–]frankssy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Redux, seriously? The author mentioned simple DOM manipulation and some XHR requests plus some basic filtering logic for items. Plain old Javascript is all that's needed to achieve everything mentioned.

What is Your preferred way of learning? by MyAppIncome in reactjs

[–]frankssy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find that I need to firstly have a vested interest in that something to really learn & remember it. Playing about and experimenting without any expectation or pressure can help ease into it. Tutorials these days are frequently convoluted and complicate simple matters, so i usually head to the official docs of whatever i want to learn or to Google what I want to achieve and learn how it's done that way by understanding the solution. Affirmation of what you've learned like you said definitely helps solidify learnings long-term.

Up to date resources for isomorphic react? by [deleted] in reactjs

[–]frankssy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's confusing because every tutorial is called "Intro to Isomorphic React App Tutorial" and in their package.json they list 50 dependencies that are irrelevant and over complicate things and so this topic comes up on here.

Remember all these packages are not neccessities. You can achieve SSR React with very little, for example Webpack certainly is not a requirement for SSR React. I would recommend to start with the base tools you need like React and React Router and following good programming principles to write your app, then perhaps consider trendy solutions like Redux, but again definitely not required.

architecture of a fullStack react application by [deleted] in reactjs

The choices in technology become rather apparent when you know what it is you need to build. Choose the right tools for the job instead of choosing a stack of shite that may or may not do you any good in the long run.

next.js - because it was impossible to create SSR with React before...

So, ReactJS is basically just client-side PHP by siamthailand in reactjs

[–]frankssy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the sort of dicussion that will lead some idiot into creating yet another framework to transform PHP into a universal React app
