I'm using SolidJS for Infumap (https://github.com/infumap/infumap), which is getting pretty big.

Two main comments that come to mind:

Because the state -> DOM mapping is non-trivial for my application, I ended up writing my own virtual DOM diffing code, a primary facet of React. I appreciate the ease of being able to circumvent this where it's not necessary and performance considerations dominate, though I admit i've not felt the need to do it anywhere yet.

The AI training data set for React is much larger. The models seem to do fine with SolidJS, though I suspect there is meaningful benefit to using React from this point of view.

Overall, I'm happy with where I'm at and I prefer the SolidJS way of thinking, though if I were to do it all over again, I'd probably just go with React for the above two reasons.



I was not expecting to loose karma for this comment!

I have a couple of years familiarity with SolidJS and thought the two key insights that came to mind from building a large project in it would have positive value.

Apparently not!

Your tone sucks. You're being rude about them not answering questions they weren't asked yet. There are much nicer ways of going about this.

Edit: Oh. All of your replies are like this. Please take a chill pill.
