Interview with Tanner Linsley
summary
Five years of work on react-table leads to concrete lessons: a popular table library used at a startup and by GitHub, lots of accidental design decisions that forced clearer APIs, and repeated refactors that reveal what scales. The explicit claim is a next step to go framework-agnostic and take the code into the broader JavaScript ecosystem. Open source operates like a product with rapid feedback loops and many messy but useful experiments.
