Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

    imo you need to be able to execute an algorithm for it to be a programming language. not necessarily turing complete but html cant really execute stuff. if you include css as part of html, then it would be turing complete then. TeX is turing complete so it is a programming language.

      I don’t think a language should need to bĕ general purpose to qualify as a programming language. As far as issuing layout instructions to web browsers, it’s pretty solid wrt to execution.
