Building web applications with maintainable and performant user interfaces is a challenge that many have faced for more than a decade, but no one has risen to this challenge quite like React.js. Today React.js is used by Facebook, Instagram, Khan Academy, and Imperial College London, to name a few. Many new users recognize the benefits of React.js and adopt it in their own projects, forming a fast-growing community. Meet React.js—a JavaScript user interface library developed by Facebook. It brings profound ideas on how to work with the DOM, organize your application's data flow, and think about user interface elements as individual components. And yet, it's only a user interface library that makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack.
