Ah the ReactJS emoji!

So, is the emoji “tiny” like an atom, or “huge” like React?

React is like 35 KB gzipped. Pretty huge in terms of JavaScript bundle size, but still physically very very small!

Oh, for sure. React is pretty small on its own. It's when the whole site is bundled into an SPA that's over 1 MB is it an issue. I wasn't making a jab at React so much as a jab at people using React (IMO) irresponsibly.
