Date: 11/03/2019

Vipul A M, Director of Big Binary

In this talk, I will take a look at a brief history of React and how it evolved over the years.

I will then talk about React fundamentals- Virtual DOM, Simple/Stateless components, Small Applications, life cycles, state management, hooks, composition/inherintance, CRA and more.

I will also talk about tooling and some preferred things the community uses: tooling, deployments, server side frameworks, GraphQL/Relay, etc

Since this talk is aimed to give a brief overview of getting started in React, I will also talk about how and where people can ask for help from the community and forums and learning in general.
