Comment on Solidjs – JavaScript UI Library

Comments

I've just completed porting react-bootstrap to SolidJS and the process was fairly painless.

Having components only run once really simplifies things ...no need to stash useRefs and useCallbacks everywhere. Refs are simply the elements themselves.

Mostly porting required a fairly repeatable pattern of removing awkward React code and using a couple of Solid functions to keep props reactive when splitting them up to spread across JSX elements.

A+ for Solid developer experience (coming from 5+ years working with React). Oh, and performance/size are added benefits.
