In this episode, the JavaScript Jabber panelists talk with Kitson Kelly about evaluating web frameworks. Kitson is currently in Australia working for ThoughtWorks as a principle technologist. He has written many articles on frameworks and urges that people don’t get stuck on one framework in their programming. He talks about how using only frameworks that you know could hurt you in the long run. This episode is great for understanding when to use certain JavaScript frameworks and how branching out from what is comfortable might make your job easier.
In particular, we dive pretty deep on:
Articles on web frameworks
How do you pick a JavaScript framework to use?
The framework depends on your changing needs
Recommending less popular frameworks
Angular, Ember, React
React vs Redux
Certain domains with different frameworks?
Each framework takes a different approach
How to decide which framework to use?
Only give it a couple days to see if your app works with the framework
Is it ever appropriate to not use a certain framework?
Frameworks are there to make your job easier
Don’t be afraid to try new frameworks
Choose a framework that will “be there tomorrow”
What is the future for frameworks?
Experiment and be honest with what you need
And much, much more!
