QUICK BITS:

  • A Twitter discussion on the relative merits of Qwik and React led to Dan Abramov noting: “If we thought (the) Qwik model was better we would have literally implemented it”

  • Dan also made an observation on a bug report that if you use Preact Signals with React, you forfeit any guarantee that React will work correctly and that “if React was a piece of hardware, this is exactly the kind of thing that voids the warranty.”

  • Progress is being made on ipyreact, a way to use React within IPyWidgets, a way to add interactive widgets to Jupyter Notebook based environments (which most often, though not exclusively, use Python).

  • Alex Reardon, the creator of react-beautiful-dnd, recently ▶️ introduced ‘Pragmatic Drag and Drop’, a new performance-oriented approach to offering drag and drop features within webapps.

???? Reddit also recently had a discussion on Zustand vs Redux.
