Yeeahhhh!!

UPDATE: There is no free parking at the Drury Hotel. They only have valet parking according to the front desk. So plan to pay for the valet or come a little earlier and park on the street nearby and walk to the hotel.

Introduction

Although React has been around awhile, it’s still a relatively new platform with some different ideas about how to build applications. React shook the JavaScript scene a few years back like a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and for many developers it has completely changed their approach to software development. If you are curious about React or React-Native, or want to meet some other developers that are interested in this technology, come to this meetup and check it out!

What is React?

React is a platform that aims to address UI component logic and UI component representations of application state.

What is React-Native?

React-Native provides React bindings for iOS and Android platforms.

Presentation

During this meetup I’ll give a brief introduction to the philosophy behind React and React-Native, followed by a live coding demonstration and walk-through.
