We are used to React being a UI library, almost all the time we talk about it being a library, I did too until a while back when I was learning about it and came across an article of it in-depth after that I never looked back. This session will cover how React works as a UI runtime, a session inspired by Dan Abramov, we will look at is as a clean canvas where you are able to create gorgeous interfaces.

By the end of this talk the audience will be able to compose reusable UI elements; gain a new perspective on the role of React in UI development, discover error handling and understand how React optimizes UI updates.
