A flowchart (rendered as an SVG from a Graphviz dot file) that helps developers diagnose why React makes them sad and points to resources to fix each problem. It is a humorous educational diagram inspired by Pete Hunt's react-howto, not a software library.

Use cases

  • understand why React feels overwhelming
  • decide whether I need Redux or Flux
  • figure out what to learn first in the React ecosystem
  • cut through JavaScript fatigue when starting with React
  • find guides for learning React state management
  • decide when to introduce Webpack and bundlers

When to choose

  • you are confused by the React ecosystem and want a quick decision tree
  • you want curated links to foundational React learning resources
  • you prefer visual flowcharts over long tutorials

When to avoid

  • you need up-to-date guidance for modern React (hooks, server components)
  • you want runnable code or a tool rather than a diagram
  • you need an actively maintained resource
