Ask HN: Is Anybody Using React Fiber in Production?

11 points by huehehue ↗ HN
http://isfiberreadyyet.com -- so far so good, right? I've had it running in a production environment with heavy traffic for a couple of months now and it hasn't catastrophically failed yet.

Are you waiting for the official release? What about your dependencies, or tightly coupled libs like React Router?

Would love to know how/if it's being used at the moment.

Nice - did you make any changes to your workflow, project organization or build tooling?

Not so much; it's more or less a drop-in replacement. Improvements to our workflow and build tooling are needed, but we were able to make the switch without changing much.

We do have our own patches scattered throughout core React stuff, so it was tricky carrying those over. Also needed to build React from the commit before they destroyed React.PropTypes & React.createClass because many third-party libs still need those.

Interesting-- that will definitely be something we deal with for some time.

An article from you and your team about what to do/not to do during the migration and on the road ahead could be good PR and mutually beneficial to all parties involved.

Hope you publish something when you can!

Isn't React-Native based in it?

So I guess all Version >44 React-Native apps.
