quick question about React (and indirectly OM): does the license scare you in any way – specifically the PATENTS section?

danielstockton14:07:49

@chrisbroome, not me, nope. I don't think it would be that hard to tear it out and replace with preact, react-lite, or similar - if it came to that.

chrisbroome14:07:56

yeah I've been following preact specifically because of the React patents statement

chrisbroome14:07:47

and there's a lot of people in the company I work for that just don't want to take the risk using React as long as the patents statement is still there

I try not to use third party react libraries etc... so i'm really just relying on the virtual dom and certain lifecycle methods.

this is one of the main things I like about it:

> Inferno provides lifecycle events on stateless components. This is a major win for people who prefer lightweight components rather than bloated ES2015 classes.
