Meteor 0.8.0 #16

Since meteor 0.8.0 includes a new template engine blaze does react become obsolete? Or how could these two work together?

@flip111 I think the answer to your question depends on why you were using React in the first place. Choosing one over the other has less to do with features and more to do with your overall philosophy/approach to front-end programming.

You should check out @petehunt's presentation from JSConf (http://2013.jsconf.eu/speakers/pete-hunt-react-rethinking-best-practices.html). He talks about the differences between React other templating systems/front-end frameworks.

Under the hood, Blaze seems to be doing some of the same things as React, so perhaps the performance gap has shrunk, but React still forces you to think about your front-end code in a completely different way.

Thanks for clearing that up.
