This domain used to host a React tutorial with a half-finished tic-tac-toe board on it. Here's what replaced it, and why.

React's own docs call it an optimization. It gets taught as the Right Way. Teaching a rule without its reason produces people who follow the rule and never learn the judgement, and the modern web is the bill for that.
