Modern JavaScript: workshop 4
As promised – this month we’re going all React.
React is a library for building user interfaces. It is developed by Facebook.
https://facebook.github.io/react/
Together we’ll follow the EggHead.io React Fundamentals course.

Those in the room with React experience will be available to answer any questions.
We’ll also cover why React might be chosen for a project and make recommendations for further learning.
Everything will be at a suitable level for new-comers with minimal JavaScript experience.
