Translating React

Jennifer Wong at React Rally 2018

We often use React and write JSX without thinking about the syntax. But what’s React actually doing under the hood? What’s the JavaScript look like? Let’s translate React into JavaScript, transpile that and see what we get. Let’s pick apart what React is really doing and get at the heart of it. We’ll talk about the importance and usefulness of knowing its baselines for beginners and experts alike. We'll gain a clearer understanding of where React’s magic originates. So the next time you use React or write JSX, you’ll be secretly translating in your head for deeper insight and edification.
