So far, the Infinite monkey theorem is just giving us an infinite number of javascript frameworks, and no Shakespeare



I'd disagree. React is very much a "Shakespeare" of javascript frameworks. It has solved UI dev by making even the most complex types of UIs predictably programmable. (Note: not including redux in this, which no developer who owns their time would use)

What's that they say about each and every framework. IMHO there is no Shakespeare and all JS frameworks will eventually die once web assembly is in place.

Not even funny IMO. This is the kind of toxic comment that don't motivate progress in this community.


Take it easy, it's just a joke that I post to every JS framework thread on HN:)
