Let's not forget about jQuery

In this talk I'd like to use 5 minutes of my time to explain to the audience why jQuery is simply way better than React.

  • Does React have a fadeIn() method? Nah, I don't think so. You need to install a react-transition-group package which weighs over 3GB.
  • Can you do $.get(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12345/adding_two_numbers_javascript) in React? NOPE.
  • Remember React 3.3.1? Me neither, because they didn't make it. Meanwhile in jQuery land: https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js
  • Can you learn jQuery for free? Sure! Can you learn React for free? It'll be $500 USD and your left kidney for a conference ticket.

And many, many more.

(This is a completely serious lightning talk proposal, I promise.)

The Joy of Composition - Why stateless rendering is pure bliss

This is a proposal for a lightning talk at the Reactive 2015 conference.

NOTE: If you like this, star ⭐ the Gist - the amount of stars decides whether it makes the cut!

The Joy of Composition

Why stateless rendering is pure bliss

React just got stateless components, meaning that they are in essence pure functions for rendering. Pure functions make it dead simple - even fun - to refactor your views
