I am baffled any time I’m on facebook how horrid it is. Loads insanely slowly, won’t accept picture uploads at random, randomly doesn’t let you share to people in your friends group (it will just hide people for no reason). Such a terrible website. Sadly I have to stay on it for friends and music reasons (there is nothing else anyone I know uses) but man, it’s crazy how badly they want you to install their spyware app so you don’t use the browser version.
I am pretty sure the whole thing uses React. You know, the framework created by Facebook.
I love react. It’s so straightforward until it collapses onto a tangled mess of hooks, refs, callbacks and dependencies.
I just finished updating an app to 0.82.1 today and JFC it was a mess.
Seriously speaking, what is option B? Start new projects in Svelte? Go back to angular or vue?
If you want to do web dev, svelte is a really good choice, I really enjoy development with it.
Sveltekit is also quite good at HTML-only sites (you can disable all client side JavaScript) which I make frequently
Start a new life on a farm.
But seriously, it was mostly because my coworkers don’t realise when the linter underlines broken stuff in red. You upgrade it, and and your project has 180 errors and you have no idea which ones are new.
