About the talk
ReactJS (https://facebook.github.io/react/) is the new kid on the block and WordPress (https://wordpress.org/) has stood the test of time.

We will talk about React tooling (Webpack and Babel) and how to setup a modern JS workflow for development. Last we will talk about how you can package your code for production using Preact.
