Meetup 13

ReactJS has become highly popular because of its extra simplicity and flexibility. Part of this huge popularity comes from the fact that top corporations such as Facebook, PayPal, Uber, Instagram, and Airbnb use it day in and day out for frontend web development. React became so popular in no time since it has a growing and healthy community associated with it.
The workshop would be around the use of React parallelly building a project to learn implementation of each concept.
