• Abstract: React is a JavaScript library used to build user interfaces for single-page applications. Although recent studies have shown the popularity and advantages of React in web development, the specific challenges users face remain unknown. Thus, this study aims to analyse the React-related questions shared on Stack Overflow. The study utilizes an exploratory data analysis to investigate the most frequently discussed keywords, error classification, and user reputation-based errors, which is the novelty of this work. The results show the top eight most frequently used keywords on React-related questions, namely, code, link, vir, href, connect, azure, windows, and website. The error classification of questions from the sample shows that algorithmic error is the most frequent issue faced by all groups of users, where mid-reputation users contribute the most, accounting for 55.77%. This suggests the need for the community to provide guidance materials in solving algorithm-related problems. We expect that the results of this study will provide valuable insight into future research to support the React community during the early stages of implementation, facilitating their ability to effectively overcome challenges to adoption.

  Question and answer (Q&A) platforms usually recommend question-answer pairs to meet users' knowledge acquisition needs. This makes user behaviors more complex, and presents two challenges for Q&A recommendation. We introduce Question & Answer Graph Collaborative Filtering (QAGCF), a graph neural network model that creates separate graphs for collaborative and semantic views.

  This paper investigates issues on Stack Overflow, a popular question and answer community for computer programming. We document evidence of a "leaky pipeline", specifically that there are many active users on the platform who never post an answer. We find a user's individual features, such as their tenure, gender, and geographic location, have a significant relationship with their likelihood to post answers.
