React is a remarkable JavaScript library that's taken the development
community by storm. In a nutshell, it's made it easier for developers to build
interactive user interfaces for web, mobile and desktop platforms. One of its
best features is its freedom from the problematic bugs inherent in MVC
frameworks, where inconsistent views is a recurring problem for big projects.
Today, thousands of companies worldwide are using React, including big names
such as Netflix and AirBnB. React has become immensely popular, such that a
number of apps have been ported to React --- including WhatsApp, Instagram
and Dropbox.
This book is a collection of articles, selected from SitePoint's React Hub, that will
guide you through your first week with the amazingly flexible library.
This book is for novice React developers. You’ll need to be familiar with HTML
and CSS and have a reasonable level of understanding of JavaScript in order to
follow the discussion.
