React for Beginners

React for Beginners

Speaker:  Jhankar Mahbub

This talk is for my friends who are more into TV, Twitter or Tequila than exploring the hot, new(ish) JavaScript framework, React. This talk will be a beginners guide to start with React, understand core concepts of state management, component and component oriented architecture while building a real world website (not a todo-list. I promise) with React and Firebase.

Jhankar (John-kar) Mahbub is a curious JavaScript developer, speaker, marathon runner, organizer of Chicago JavaScript meetup group. He publishes his tips and tricks for JavaScript developers at thatjsdude.com and videos on youtube
