[exceptione]

I am the first to admit that SSR worked fine since PHP. But two points I like to make

1) choose boring technology; 2) it is the library, stupid

First question should be: what type of web application are we talking about? If your blog does not render or your e-commerce site stops working without javascript, shame on you indeed.

If we are talking about SPA's, aka those replacing traditional desktop applications, and you want to throw out React, then we have something to discuss. Because, how are you going to replace MUI/MUI(x)? I keep hearing about the coolness of alternatives, and I am certain open to it, but in the end it needs to be not just better in some aspects or even fundamentals, while completely lacking in practical matters. A simple benchmark I keep going back to is to see if $hotness is able to replace [1], which shows you just one component of many in a cohesive system.

I don't contend with the principles in the article, but I do with conclusions like "ripping out react would be the solution".
