React for your web sites in 4D

46:50 min English version Version française

Abstract

React (also called React.js or ReactJS) is a free JavaScript library developed by Facebook since 2013. The main purpose of this library is to facilitate the creation of single-page web applications, through the creation of state-dependent components and generating an HTML page (or portion) at each change of state. The purpose of this session is to show you how to integrate this library in a 4D environment. This conference will not teach you how to develop in React, even if you will be introduced to some concepts.

• React, what’s that ?
• From 4D, architecture.
• Good practices for use and safety
• Parse of the demonstration base: Yoga profiles on a website, with private publication, and public search, served by 4D web server.

The interface created is just stunning, and easy to write and maintain. Above all, you are shifting the complexity of the 4D web application to the javascript stack, and it will be easier to mix the skills of the developers, and find new ones on the market.
