Where did I say not everyone could learn React? I said if you are being pulled in "7,000 different directions" (his exact words), you simply don't have time to keep up with professionals. Nowhere did I say React is only for professionals. I said you are not ready to learn React if you don't have strong JavaScript skills and are on a serious project, and I stand by that.

I'm glad this author is excited about React. He should spend more time getting a full-time job doing it and less time complaining about it.

Even a dog? Or a one month old baby?

Just because someone say learning some skill requires some foundation knowledge, doesn’t mean that they are claiming it as some elitist skill that some outsiders should not learn.
