Moving Large Scale Web Apps to React

Through the years we've built countless web apps using our favorite front-end tooling at the time. Just like with any production app, you may now be in the perpetual maintenance cycle or the app is still being used but is begging to be rewritten. Let's indulge our desire to rewrite everything we could using the latest and greatest. In this talk, Stan Bershadskiy will take you through the process of taking an existing application and porting it over to a more modern technology stack, such as React. You will learn about several of the popular supporting libraries and tools used today to help you build your app more efficiently.
