A pragmatic attitude of mine is: do not use anything that is less than a year old.
Applies to frameworks, tools, programming languages, operating systems etc.
You can break this rule if you really know what you're doing, and it's only one thing in the chain. But basing your whole product on a whole stack of work-in-progress stuff is madness, unless you like pain.
Ok, React et al. are more than one year old, but still the whole ecosystems is not the best one to just start your webdev career from, due to complexity, lots of moving parts, breaking changes, etc.
