What are some examples of React's focus on shorthand and abstraction? React is fairly small and doesn't really encourage much at all. The one 'battle' that I often find myself in is "should this be a seperate component?" but that's more of a people problem and something that every language and framework will have.
Of course there might be some completely valid reason for this, but it’s baffling to me why you would want this type of shorthand, instead of just explicitly writing what you mean.
Of course in golang this could be something like:
var someVariable //is false
someFunction(someVariable)
But I would (personally) not write code like this if I could avoid it. It would be:
someVariable := false
someFunction(someVariable)
It’s a little bit longer, but imo takes slightly less mental overhead to read.
It's a shorthand, and its similar to what HTML does.
If you don't like the optional shorthand, don't use it? I don't understand how this is something exclusive to React, or something it specifically encourages.
I'm with you on this one, I've seen people rewrite things like this, and to me this is just personal preferences, and it's something that the team need to agree on.
