Beyond React
summary
Claims that React’s architecture forces bad patterns and shows concrete alternatives: first React single page app rewritten from Backbone in a month with ten developers by switching to a single store, a recent React Native bank project that surfaces React-native pain points, critique of GraphQL-on-client security, and benchmarked comparisons where an Imba-like stack reports 57,000 ops/sec (roughly 20× typical VDOMs). Live demos include a screencast app built in the alternative stack and working reconciliation examples that reduce code size and improve DOM-level performance.
