Thanks for the informative article! I have a couple of questions:

Why is it that you add dependencies on both React and `tictactoe/adapters` from the `common` folder? Shouldn't it be independent?

All your controllers depend on React. Why is this? Shouldn't they be UI framework-agnostic if following the Clean Architecture?
