Episode notes

This chapter delves into the speakers' journey with React, explaining their shift towards SvelteKit due to reasons like its simplicity, their aversion to virtual DOM, appreciation for React's evolution, and factors like the use of real DOM and dislike for JSX influencing their decision to not continue using React in the future.

In this potluck episode of Syntax, Scott and CJ serve up a variety of community questions, from the nuances of beginner vs. advanced TypeScript to the pros and cons of SvelteKit. They also discuss falling out of love with React, shipping private packages via NPM, and the eternal struggle of always starting but never finishing projects.
