Thanks for the feedback Stefano!
Please, if anybody is *against* the use of React in Koha, please
voice your concerns!
Question: what has Facebook added to js that we could not use as
"regular" js? Not a show stopper, but our "gut feeling" (not fully
documented, but more than anecdotal) is that all js code, given its
standalone capability, has a more than proportional speed downside.
And I'm not going near the licensing questions.
If I understand this bug 17297 ("low enhancement") correctly, it
refines itemnotes by adding granularity. If this is a "good thing",
can the original coding be improved? Add an auth value? If we need js,
how optional might this be? (do we know how many Koha users are truly
interested?)
I've always been impressed by Koha core speed, and without using such
expressions as "mission creep" (or heaven forfend, code bloat) I truly
recognize that enhancements are a real life necessity. Just wondering
how and where they are best added while maintaining the KISS principle...

My +1 for React. Angular requires a specific skill, other than
Javascript.

I have my proof of concept for using React within Koha
completed! You can see it here:Â
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17297
Please give it a try!
So, I've written this development ( at least in part ) in
both Angular and React. I know Angular 2 is out but here
are my thoughts so far.
1) It's much easier to think in React than in Angular.Â
React is for the most part just Javascript. It's far less
opinionated than Angular. They saying goes React is
Javascript and Angular is Angular. I think the flexibility
of React works well within the Koha ecosystem.
2) Writing React feels much more like programming. I think
it's much faster to develop reactive and ajax features inÂ
React than it is using jQuery.
3) React makes it pretty easy to create widgets that we
can drop in to a given page and have just work. Pretty much
anything that shows up on multiple pages would make for a
good React widget. Think the holds table which is on the
checkouts page and the patron details page. It is ajaxified
now, but a far far cleaner version could be written in React.
4) React is just a view layer. Angular is a full MVC
framework with many pieces we don't really need.
I think React is probably the way to go for Koha. I like
Angular but for Koha in particular, I think React is a
better fit. I think we really need to get this decision made
as soon as possible. If anyone has opinions, please let
everyone know!
