Thanks for your reply and your openness. It's great that you find the time to answer random guys on HN.
Since you're here... I do wonder, how much of the React documentation did you write? The 'style' of the writing seems to match yours, e.g. when discussing Immutable JS.
Further, slightly late, reply. I've been looking more at Reason. It's React (not strictly but plays nicely) + Typescript + Immutable JS + Redux all in one fully integrated package. Looks awesome, thanks for the reminder.
