[REQUEST] Introduction to React

[kensnyder]

1. What is React and JSX?
2. How do I use it?
3. What are the advantages?
4. What is this Redux stuff?

I would be happy to cover this topic although React and Redux would need to be covered separately. I could cover either or both.

[megamaddu]

Same, and it could be either or both. Doing both at once would probably take closer to 90 minutes if there's some starter project code involved. We could do both in < 60 min if it was more of an overview that talked about the "why"s more than trying to be a training.

I'd highly suggest doing React and Redux/Flux at different events. Learning Redux/Flux before being comfortable with React on its own is simply overwhelming (from personal experience)

I'd like to hear about how to use React sans JSX / build tools.

[megamaddu]

I wouldn't mind doing that. Any specific details you think would be valuable besides showing a couple common approaches?

I'd love to give this talk! Would anyone be interested in me giving this talk next week at the O.C. Tanner Meetup?

[kensnyder]

@kentcdodds That would be great! Let me know the title of talk you want to go with. We'll give you about 7:40 to 8:30pm.

How about: "The introduction to React you've been missing" 😉

You could include in the description, something that mentions:

Even experienced React developers will learn something from this presentation.

Thanks! See you then!

@kentcdodds OK. It is updated! Thanks!
