Q&A with the cast of React.js: The Documentary

Video Description

What’s better than a documentary about React.js? Well… not anything really, but this Q&A comes close! Relive our Q&A with the founding team of React and learn what moment convinced them that ‘React was the real deal.’ They cover everything from React's lean architecture to the competition between frameworks and where they see React in the next 10 years. Thanks to everybody for participating and especially to Michael Chan for hosting. It’s been goofy. 🕺 00:00-02:53 Hi and intro from Michael Chan 02:53-05:59 Quick words from the filmmaker 05:59-07:49 Christopher Chedeau's helping hand 07:49-09:52 Jordan Walke's involvement in the documentary 10:05-25:20 Where do you see React in the next 5-10 years? 25:20-35:40 What was the first demo that convinced you that React was the real deal? 35:40-43:10 How did it feel when React first started to catch on? 43:10-54:00 What was the effect of React being a lean library? 54:00-01:02:07 Competition between libraries 01:02:07-01:03:14 Ending words from Michael Chan Check out the home for untold developer stories around open source, careers and all the other cool stuff developers are doing at cult.honeypot.io.
