op-1 is the most notorious one, but they do have some well designed not over-priced products

I wouldn't say TE's products are not ergonomic and totally useless

I'm daily user of the old 3-piece suite, should I be worried they will be taken away from me in the near future?

> React looks cleaner. It reads better at first glance. But that readability comes at a cost: you're trading explicit simplicity for abstraction complexity.

Not always, SolidJS code can look the same as React code, but what goes under the hood is very simple and straightforward.

They did exactly what I've been wanting to do and did a great job, I'm happy for them, they must be having so much fun writing softwares.

Yeah they themselves are functions but how they're called are managed by a complicated system, I think treating them as a separate new concept is less misleading than calling them plain functions

It's very sad this is what's happening. React hooks was a major innovation but a very bad one, people in the front-end world seem to value more about radical innovation and marketing buzzwords like "functional UI" (which is not true) than truly evaluating a system. The earliest momentum started from trend chasing, also a lot of people use React because they see the JSX looks pretty nice in the examples.

Based on how they are run they are completely not just ordinary JavaScript functions, hook era components are also not just JavaScript functions, it's a very complicated system. React calling them "just functions" is untrue, just marketing buzz words, and it leads developers into traps.

Wow a fast scripting language with normal syntax and type checking.. Really hope this can take off and be a valid Lua alternative.

I can't tell if the author is for the idea or not, it seems they're for the idea but don't want to hear people to brag about it?

This looks great! Will give a try later. For iPhone sync can it sync to the built-in Music app music library?

Managing local music with Music.app and syncing with Finder iPhone sync still works good for me, but Music.app does seem unmaintained for a couple years now with some annoying bugs since the terrible Big Sur rewrite. Despite the flaws this combination is still the best music library management + mobile sync solution I've seen (plz recommend!), but I feel eventually will have to write a system myself since the software is not maintained and not cross platform.
