Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

avoid react, please

React’s not going anywhere. May as well learn the basics. Hell, learn the basics of jQuery too. That shit’s everywhere.

You’re preaching to the choir, comrade. I begged my boss to not introduce React into our jQuery-heavy codebase before we’re done ripping out the jQuery. The interactions we’ve had between old jQuery selectors and React’s virtual dom have not been pretty.
