WP-API complaint: JSON convention is an object and then a data key. WP-API is an array of objects.

#WCAVL

Should use Webpack if you’re using React not Gulp or Grunt

#WCAVL

React
– WordPress’ Calypso uses React github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso
– Good way to get into React

#WCAVL

React
– Server-side renderable
– Components work on the fronted and backend

#WCAVL

React
– Just compares about state components
– Redux lets you go back and forward in time via a JSON blob
#WCAVL

React:
– Components
– JSX (which looks like butchered HTML)
– The hardest to explain because it doesn’t do anything for you

#WCAVL

React:
– New “cool kid”
– 26KB but doesn’t come with much
– Just the view layer *V*
– “Give me data, I’ll put it on a page for you”

#WCAVL

Ember
– Handlebars includes if and else statements
– Rest of logic goes in your controller

#WCAVL

Ember:
– Supports virtual DOM & Components
– Claims better performance than React but that’s crap

#WCAVL

Ember:
– Ember data is like GraphQL for the Ember ecosystem
– Jargony gobblidgook

#WCAVL

Ember:
– CLI use is highly recommended
– Other frameworks use NPM
– Need to buy in to the Ember ecosystem
– Kind of like RoR

#WCAVL

Ember:
– Built by same team being jQuery and Ruby on Rails
– 136.2KB (jQuery + Handlebars)

#WCAVL

Angular:
– 4 different write ways to do anything
– You’re writing things the way you want them
– Easy to make spaghetti code
