Abstract #

React is a JavaScript library to build user interfaces. It started as a framework for web development, but the ideas it has championed are now used to build experiences across multiple surfaces like mobile and even VR.
In this talk, we will start with creating a simple web application using ReactJS, and then convert it to run as an iOS and Android app on mobile phones. We will look at the similarities in the design patterns, and embrace the difference in each platform. We will also look at React 360, which lets us developer user interfaces for VR platforms.
