With over 1.7 million downloads a week, React is a well established and popular tool to create component based user interfaces. By enabling React developers to leverage their existing knowledge and ecosystem, ReasonReact brings functional programming for front-end development, one step closer to widespread adoption.

Since its release in March 2017, ReasonReact has progressed quickly. In this brief overview, attendees should gain an understanding of;

What ReasonML/ReasonReact is,
