So what is React? React is a front-end JavaScript library created by Facebook. The purpose of React is to create fast, scalable web and mobile applications without reloading the page. That's a huge, huge thing. I'll talk about that in a second. React is component-based with reusable components. React is very fast. It can build for both web and mobile applications, and React is very easy to learn.
