Creating UI with React

So far in this book, we have focused on the development of our back-end API; but our application won't be complete without an intuitive user interface (UI) our end-users can interact with. Thus, this chapter will focus on building a web application that consumes our API.

Specifically, by following this chapter, you will:

Understand the pros and cons of different UI frameworks and libraries
Learn about the basics of React, including JSX and virtual DOM
Bundle our code using Webpack
