Lightning talk proposal for the Reactive 2016 Conference: Reconceptualizing react applications as a function

Lightning talk proposal for the Reactive 2016 Conference. Here's a handy retweet link

If you want to hear this talk, or if you just want to support me, please star ⭐ the Gist!

When I started writing React apps, I approached components as if they were “just the V in MVC!” Seriously, we’ve all heard it.

I have found this to be an inferior way of thinking about and building React applications. It makes people treat React as a drop-in replacement for something like a Backbone or Angular 1.x View. In other words, people treat it like a glorified template system with partials and don’t harness the power of its functional paradigms.

This talk is about a functional way to write and conceptualize entire React applications.
