You can now write React in Lua

I've had enough experience with 10-person teams trying to synchronize code for a large UI to think otherwise.

Trying to do that with "just HTML, CSS & JS" either dooms the project or ends up with the team implementing their own flavor of React (or something else) to standardized complicated state update in a modular fashion that allows sharing code.

Not everyone needs React, but when you do, it's nice not to have to reinvent the wheel.

What do you think is a large UI? Can you give me an example?

Facebook is one. So is Google Cloud's dashboard. Basically anything where a single UI will be serving multiple separable concerns (that could be handed to multiple separate teams in a large org).
