dead framework theory
aifoc.usThese are my opinions and are ruminations on what might be happening as more and more developers use LLMs and Frameworks to build on the web.
In October last year I wrote “will developers care about frameworks in the future?” predicting that LLMs would abstract away framework choice. I was wrong—or at least, wrong about the timeline.
The reality is more interesting and more permanent: React isn’t competing with other frameworks anymore. React has become the platform. And if you’re building a new framework, library or browser feature today, you need to understand that you’re not just competing with React—you’re competing against a self-reinforcing feedback loop between LLM training data, system prompts, and developer output that makes displacing React functionally impossible.


You are wrong. Pretty sure you are also self enforcing your own bias onto the llm. Devs choose a technology and work within even if the LLMs are not trained properly on it. We recently switched from svelte 3 to 5 with runes and the LLM answers for it are hot steaming garbage. Needs a lot of pre promting and thinking out loud to produce desired results. We would to think of going back to the
stoneJava ages and switch to react.
