Two front-end tech talks held in March 2015 at Facebook London

Non-React Libraries in a React Setup
Overview: React makes UI building a breeze, but what about using existing, fine UI libraries not built with React? How can we still benefit of it by wrapping over stateful components? In this talk we will discuss the different strategies to accommodate non-React components in such an environment, based on our own experience working with Leaflet.js, a popular sliding map renderer.

Rethinking Native App Development
Overview: Writing native apps can be a trying experience: the write/install/run development loop is expensive, the tooling can be lacking, and the APIs don't often lend themselves to writing clean code. React Native aims to make native app development faster, easier to maintain, and just plain more fun, while maintaining the full power and look and feel of the native platform. We'll give a brief overview of React-style programming, as well as some of our major challenges and design decisions.
