React 201: Beyond The Basics. Followed by a panel discussion with Q&A

New Format: We will have 1 presenter (see below). Following the presentation, a group of Vancouver React experts will join me on a panel to discuss React, React Native and anything else that's related.

Live-Stream: Given the large number of people who ended up on the waitlist for previous events, we are going to live-stream this meetup (link to be provided shortly before the meetup). The first ~80 people who sign up will join us at the Mobify HQ while everyone else will be able to watch online and ask question on Twitter.

Ask questions: Anybody is encouraged to send in their questions via Twitter by using the hashtag #reactjsvan. Send your questions now or during the meetup. Keep in mind though, the sooner you send in your questions, the more likely we will find time to discuss it.

Talk Description: If you've ever tried to build something large and serious with React you've probably stumbled upon a few issues. We at Cumul8 certainly did.

This will be an advanced talk which assumes you understand the basics of React components, unidirectional data flow and functional programming.
