Arrays of Pointers dont render correctly #275
Description

Environment Setup
Steps to reproduce
Pointers render with a link to the object its pointer to, unless that pointer is in an array.
[{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"8vCiwc7J1T"},{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"HHv9Oa6qFE"},{"__type":"Pointer","className":"Connection","objectId":"LTRsJIYBIH"}]
It would be nice if the pointers in an array rendered and linked to the object its pointing to as well.
Logs/Trace
Note: If you get a browser JS error please run npm run dev. This will provide source maps and a much more useful stack trace.

Could the same parsing that is done on 'pointer' columns be applied when __type:Pointer is identified in the array?

Any news about this? It could be very useful

Therr is rreally no point to be using Parse these days.
AntonelloCherry commentedon Dec 9, 2019
Why? Any valid alternative to suggest?

@r2DoesInc I believe it was decided to make Array and Object fields to be generic as possible. This fixed a lot of decoding issues from the database.
Your feature request is still up for grabs. Unfortunately we don't have enough React developers in this Dashboard repo.
@AntonelloCherry Would you like to open a PR to addressed this? We are more than welcome to help.
Parse is quite active and better than ever!

Maybe not for you, but this is a very active community and there are still quite a few people using it. Yes there are alternatives, but some may prefer to avoid 'the great Google in the sky' or other options and Parse is a strong, open source alternative.
