Where are the Michael Abrash's of today teaching people how to write tight, fast code? Seems a lost art...

Yes, I know, he's still around...

Those videos on data oriented design were also very interesting: https://github.com/taylor001/data-oriented-design

The thing is, using C++ instead of React for mobile development of a simple application would probably make me miss deadlines... So we just stick to whats popular.

Building UI's in something like Qt, GTK or swing was never really that time consuming, especially given the limited amount of controls one screen in a mobile app.
