Falcor: Simplifying Your Data

Brian Holt at React Rally 2015

Many of us have the issue where we have to pass props to children again and again because we have data that a parent has and a deeply nested child needs. It's a difficulty that comes with React and no one has quite solved it yet. At Netflix, we believe we have a good solution for it that is explicit, performant, and terse without sacrificing clarity. The name of the soon-to-be open sourced library is Falcor and it takes care not only of your data tunneling issue but also caching, cache invalidation, and even simple AJAX operations. Let's chat about how we can push React data to the next level.
