React vs the DOM | Blog • Soorria Saruva

className, htmlFor
forcing inputs' values to match their value props makes things more intuitive
but react does patch over other things to make things a bit easier / more intuitive, e.g.
- oninput, onchange, etc -> onChange
- whitespace in jsx isn't preserved - only in the strings you add, unlike in html
more of a JSX thing, but self-closing tags work different: https://jakearchibald.com/2023/against-self-closing-tags-in-html/
events differences: https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/common#react-event-object
form action prop as function
head elements get automatically moved to the <head>
- https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/link
  - links are also automatically deduped
- https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/meta
- https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/script
  - <script async src="..."> only
- https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/style
  - additional precedence prop to handle ordering for CSS cascade
- https://react.dev/reference/react-dom/components/title#set-the-document-title
  - children needs to be a single string, otherwise React will Error
this makes things easier, but could lead to people becoming "React" developers vs web developers - i.e. people learning the framework instead of learning the platform
not how things work in general
