Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Spent all night fixin’ bugs, just to find a few more,
Tangled up in states, can’t tell what they’re for,
I miss the days when life was simpler code,
Now I’m stuck in this JSX overload.
(Chorus)
I forgot how much I hate React,
Nested components draggin’ me back,
Props and hooks, they got me confused,
I just want code that I don’t have to abuse.
Every update, it’s a heart attack,
Oh, I forgot how much I hate React.
(Verse 2)
Tried to map my data, but it won’t display,
Spent two hours lookin’ for a typo all day,
UseEffect’s tangled in a logic maze,
This framework's got me in a daze.
(Chorus)
I forgot how much I hate React,
Virtual DOM, I can’t keep track,
Debuggin’ feels like a rodeo,
Chasin’ errors where they don’t wanna show.
Every re-render sends me off track,
Oh, I forgot how much I hate React.
(Bridge)
I thought I'd build fast, but I’m movin’ slow,
In this library hell, I’m ready to let go,
State’s a mess and I’m losing sleep,
In this component tree that's way too deep.
(Chorus)
I forgot how much I hate React,
All these dependencies stacked on my back,
I’d trade it in for vanilla plain,
Just to save me from this headache pain.
Every build’s like a panic attack,
Oh, I forgot how much I hate React.
(Outro)
One more sprint, and I’m out the door,
Can’t do this frontend grind no more,
I’ll take my code, where it’s clean and lean,
Far from this React dev routine.
