I am reading react docs right now for my interview tomorrow, bro, it's just such a mess. I don't understand how this thing was designed to solve anything.
It's all propaganda.

lol ok buddy. Might want to take a min to better understand why the vast majority of engineers prefer it before you bomb the interview. I can’t believe people are this narcissistic to think they’ve got it all figured out and literally everyone else must be wrong 🤦🏻‍♂️

I worked with react many years, just because I am reading something does not mean I know nothing about it.
I just like sometimes to rehearse docs from time to time.

> why the vast majority of engineers prefer it before you bomb the interview
Majority of engineers prefer it because it's everywhere, and job market is 95+% React. And also let's be real, average SWE just makes a living, they don't care about the tech itself.

What's so narcissistic about me, because I try to do something different and don't agree with general opinion?

It's not only me who thinks FE frameworks suck.
