React isn't immediate mode by my understanding.
In my head it's retained mode + the diffing layer, which sounds the same but if you try to write an "immediate-mode" API (say, using hooks) in React you'll find yourself churning a lot.
At least unless you use the magic React compiler that memo-izes everything correctly.
