React is flexible and can be used in a variety of projects. You can create new apps with it, but you can also gradually introduce it into an existing codebase without doing a rewrite.

### Trying Out React
|
|
|
|
If you're just interested in playing around with React, you can use CodePen. Try starting from [this Hello World example code](http://codepen.io/gaearon/pen/rrpgNB?editors=0010). You don't need to install anything; you can just modify the code and see if it works.
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to use your own text editor, you can also <a href="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/facebook/react/master/docs/downloads/single-file-example.html" download="hello.html">download this HTML file</a>, edit it, and open it from the local filesystem in your browser. It does a slow runtime code transformation, so don't use it in production.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use it for a full application, there are two popular ways to get started with React: using Create React App, or adding it to an existing application.

### Creating a New Application
|
|
|
|
[Create React App](http://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app) is the best way to start building a new React single page application. It sets up your development environment so that you can use the latest JavaScript features, provides a nice developer experience, and optimizes your app for production.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g create-react-app
|
|
create-react-app my-app
|
|
|
|
cd my-app
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create React App doesn't handle backend logic or databases; it just creates a frontend build pipeline, so you can use it with any backend you want. It uses build tools like Babel and webpack under the hood, but works with zero configuration.
|
|
|
|
When you're ready to deploy to production, running `npm run build` will create an optimized build of your app in the `build` folder. You can learn more about Create React App [from its README](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app#create-react-app-) and the [User Guide](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/template/README.md#table-of-contents).

### Adding React to an Existing Application
|
|
|
|
You don't need to rewrite your app to start using React.
|
|
|
|
We recommend adding React to a small part of your application, such as an individual widget, so you can see if it works well for your use case.
|
|
|
|
While React [can be used](/docs/react-without-es6.html) without a build pipeline, we recommend setting it up so you can be more productive. A modern build pipeline typically consists of:
|
|
|
|
* A **package manager**, such as [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) or [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/). It lets you take advantage of a vast ecosystem of third-party packages, and easily install or update them.
|
|
* A **bundler**, such as [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) or [Browserify](http://browserify.org/). It lets you write modular code and bundle it together into small packages to optimize load time.
|
|
* A **compiler** such as [Babel](http://babeljs.io/). It lets you write modern JavaScript code that still works in older browsers.
|
|
|
|
### Installing React
|
|
|
|
>**Note:**
|
|
>
|
|
>Once installed, we strongly recommend setting up a [production build process](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#use-the-production-build) to ensure you're using the fast version of React in production.
|
|
|
|
We recommend using [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) or [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) for managing front-end dependencies. If you're new to package managers, the [Yarn documentation](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/getting-started) is a good place to get started.
|
|
|
|
To install React with Yarn, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn init
|
|
yarn add react react-dom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To install React with npm, run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm init
|
|
npm install --save react react-dom
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Both Yarn and npm download packages from the [npm registry](http://npmjs.com/).
|
|
|
|
### Enabling ES6 and JSX
|
|
|
|
We recommend using React with [Babel](http://babeljs.io/) to let you use ES6 and JSX in your JavaScript code. ES6 is a set of modern JavaScript features that make development easier, and JSX is an extension to the JavaScript language that works nicely with React.
|
|
|
|
The [Babel setup instructions](https://babeljs.io/docs/setup/) explain how to configure Babel in many different build environments. Make sure you install [`babel-preset-react`](http://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/preset-react/#basic-setup-with-the-cli-) and [`babel-preset-es2015`](http://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/preset-es2015/#basic-setup-with-the-cli-) and enable them in your [`.babelrc` configuration](http://babeljs.io/docs/usage/babelrc/), and you're good to go.
|
|
|
|
### Hello World with ES6 and JSX
|
|
|
|
We recommend using a bundler like [webpack](https://webpack.js.org/) or [Browserify](http://browserify.org/) so you can write modular code and bundle it together into small packages to optimize load time.
|
|
|
|
The smallest React example looks like this:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import React from 'react';
|
|
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
|
|
|
|
ReactDOM.render(
|
|
<h1>Hello, world!</h1>,
|
|
document.getElementById('root')
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This code renders into a DOM element with the id of `root` so you need `<div id="root"></div>` somewhere in your HTML file.
|
|
|
|
Similarly, you can render a React component inside a DOM element somewhere inside your existing app written with any other JavaScript UI library.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Development and Production Versions
|
|
|
|
By default, React includes many helpful warnings. These warnings are very useful in development.
|
|
|
|
**However, they make the development version of React larger and slower so you should use the production version when you deploy the app.**
|
|
|
|
Learn [how to tell if your website is serving the right version of React](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#use-the-production-build), and how to configure the production build process most efficiently:
|
|
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with Create React App](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#create-react-app)
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with Single-File Builds](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#single-file-builds)
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with Brunch](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#brunch)
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with Browserify](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#browserify)
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with Rollup](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#rollup)
|
|
* [Creating a Production Build with webpack](/docs/optimizing-performance.html#webpack)
|
|
|
|
### Using a CDN
|
|
|
|
If you don't want to use npm to manage client packages, the `react` and `react-dom` npm packages also provide single-file distributions in `umd` folders, which are hosted on a CDN:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react@16/umd/react.development.js"></script>
|
|
<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react-dom@16/umd/react-dom.development.js"></script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The versions above are only meant for development, and are not suitable for production. Minified and optimized production versions of React are available at:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react@16/umd/react.production.min.js"></script>
|
|
<script crossorigin src="https://unpkg.com/react-dom@16/umd/react-dom.production.min.js"></script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To load a specific version of `react` and `react-dom`, replace `16` with the version number.
|
|
|
|
If you use Bower, React is available via the `react` package.
|
|
|
|
#### Why the `crossorigin` Attribute?
|
|
|
|
If you serve React from a CDN, we recommend to keep the [`crossorigin`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/CORS_settings_attributes) attribute set:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<script crossorigin src="..."></script>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We also recommend to verify that the CDN you are using sets the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` HTTP header:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This enables a better [error handling experience](/blog/2017/07/26/error-handling-in-react-16.html) in React 16 and later.
