Re:Why React/Redux is inferior as a paradigm by acjohnson55 on Wednesday January 20, 2016 @05:06PM (#10941741)
I actually find it to be the opposite. Developing with Redux, you can actually throw away most of React's API. In my app, React basically acts like a functionally pure rendering layer.

It definitely has a learning curve, but the very simple data flow makes it pretty straightforward, once you've learned what each layer does.

That's definitely the Redux dream I'm trying to achieve, but as I mentioned in a comment elsewhere, it feels like there is a lot of initial setup. And with each new container, the setup process just starts over. I haven't craved TypeScript in awhile, but for whatever reason, Redux has rekindled the desire (and I know it can be done, I just haven't gotten around to it).
