React Hooks are Dead? How Signals Are Taking Over

[@ChrisHeathNedlinin]

At 12:00, wouldn't it be better to just use computed from the library rather than wrapping it in a signal yourself?

My bad, thanks for calling me out on that one.

I hate that. Signals are like 15+ years old and then there was the idea to make simple components in react, angular and aurelia and especially svelte. And now the world shifts to signals again until in 3 years the pendulum swings back again.

It's crazy how things go in the world of software development especially with Javascript.

Same feeling here. Signals are deprecated technology (Redux used to use them), and now they're comming back like something new and shiny.

@@caribouroadfarm 🤯 This whole time I thought signals were just coming to React for the first time.

[@DevMeloy]

Software development is cyclical, what's old is new and what is new will soon be old and outdated.

@@caribouroadfarm Latest version of Angular "17" introduced Signals for the first time and they are very performant.
