so its a dumb technology or noo???


Its a great lint rule imo, I would have appreciated having this one on back even I first used React


All technology is dumb. The trick is recognising in which ways its dumb.


"All technology is dumb"

implying that javascript and rust in the same tier is mistake


All technology had blind spots. I think Rust might be async IO DX but that's based on what I read.

I'd probably rather build some things (most things) in JS than Rust. It has GC and let's me focus more on the business problem. But id even more prefer Go Java or C#. But I'm a microservice monkey so ymmv.


This isn't just javascript. This is react on javascript.
