Example

Simple example to get you started:

  return function(props) {
    return (
      <h1>Hello { props.name }</h1>
    );
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(
  React.createElement(
    WelcomeComponent,
    {name: "World"},
    null
  ), 
  document.getElementById('reactContainer')
);

This example will render "Hello World" into a container with id reactContainer on the template view.

Known limitations

• There is no support for npm or yarn packages, therefore all updates or extensions must be done manually.

• There is no support for ES6 so all modern features of Javascript are not available.

• Class components from React are not available.
