> how do you feel about the fact that React has ~4 major routing libraries?

I think it's worth mentioning that the API for the largest one of these (react-router) has had breaking changes with every single release, and takes a totally new approach to routing each time. So the question is more, 'How do you feel about changing your approach to routing every time you write a new app?'

Or maybe I'm just too old and bitter for React haha




Old versions of libraries don't disappear when new versions are released.

You can npm install react-router@^3.0.0 and keep using what you know.


Sure, if you're ok with having wildly fragmented documentation for all the different versions of the one component making it difficult to troubleshoot any problems you're having with your version, which becomes increasingly more out of date.
