React Bias

React Bias

It may seem like a bold suggestion that we as web developers can choose the wrong tools for the job because we tend to be swayed by appeals to popularity or authority, but simple statistics imply just that. For example, React (https://reactjs.org/) is a JavaScript framework that emphasizes componentization and simplified state management. It enjoys strong advocacy from a vocal and dedicated userbase within the developer community.

Despite React’s apparent popularity, however, The HTTP Archive observed in 2020 that React only accounted for 4% of all libraries in use across the 7.56 million origins it analyzed (https://almanac.httparchive.org/en/2020/javascript#libraries).

For context, The State of JS 2020 Survey (https://2020.stateofjs.com/en-US/), which surveyed roughly 23,765 respondents, offers the following statistics:

  • 70.8% of respondents identified as white.
  • 91.1% identified as male, whereas 5.8% identified as female and 0.9% identified as non-binary/third gender.
