It seems like a lot of big projects are switching from Ember or Angular to React, or are choosing it for new projects. I think that's a good thing.

Am I being stupid/paranoid by not knowing if I want to trust React because it was created by Facebook?

Yes, you are. Read the source if you're really that concerned.

I'm excited because this means two things for me and my QOL:

1. Faster editor.

2. Some of the missing features from go-plus will now be merged to the master branch of the package since it depended on React being default in the editor. Really excited. :) https://atom.io/packages/go-plus
