Code reviews are not for your team to be human linters. We have tools like ESLint & prettier to take care of that.
Code review is to catch larger code issues. Not syntax.

I have a problem with this screen. Only like 2 or 3 of these are actually frameworks.
With React & Preact you build your framework out of those view libraries. Ember & Angular provide so much more out of the box.

Shout out @miragejs! I talked about this method of testing at @JSConfUS in 2018 (starting here: piped.video/243TCc5qP-g?t=1561)
Itās real powerful. Weāve also had tons of instances where we built the UI before the API was even ready, thanks to Mirage.
Oh yeah, perhaps most important: We call a mock API so every call returns reliably and instantly.
And we pass a header that allows us to specify what the mock API should return.

Very Ember like!
Today, weāre releasing the first Release Candidate for React 17! This release is rather unusual: it contains no new features. š reactjs.org/blog/2020/08/10/ā¦
ALT The React 17 release is unusual because it doesnāt add any new developer-facing features. Instead, this release is primarily focused on making it easier to upgrade React itself. Weāre actively working on the new React features, but theyāre not a part of this release. The React 17 release is a key part of our strategy to roll them out without leaving anyone behind. In particular, React 17 is a āstepping stoneā release that makes it safer to embed a tree managed by one version of React inside a tree managed by a different version of React.

Iām hoping typescript goes the way of coffeescript and thereās a mass exit from it in a few years.
If I wanted strong types Iād pick a language that had them. Bolting them on top of a loosely typed language makes no sense to me
