<h2>Introduction</h2>

<p>Today we are going to kick off the first installment in a new series of tutorials, <strong>Learning React</strong>, that will focus on becoming proficient and effective with Facebook's React library. Before we start building anything meaningful, its important that we cover some base concepts first, so lets get this party started.</p>

<h3>What is React?</h3>

<p>React is a UI library developed at Facebook to facilitate the creation of interactive, stateful &amp; reusable UI components. It is used at Facebook in production, and Instagram.com is written entirely in React.</p>

<p>One of it's unique selling points is that not only does it perform on the client side, but it can also be rendered server side, and they can work together inter-operably.</p>
