It's more like React is the MFC to HTML5's Win32. A not very good API with a near monopoly that people spend lots of time wallpapering over with ever more elaborate frameworks that end up being used only for distribution reasons.

It’s a pretty great API, I’d say! The alternatives also have their own warts.

That's a novel take. What justifies Win32's claim to greatness in your eyes? Do you mean by the standard of the time, or even today?
