My name is Wei. I self-identify as a work in progress React developer. I love our local tech community here. You can see me around often, most likely at <RK />, Talk.CSS, or any event that teaches me the skills to spam this world with websites.

intro

I run this meetup. My most relevant activity to this meetup and, in turn, this talk, is that I've been running a similar (or you can consider a precursor) podium internal to our React team for roughly the same number of weeks to bear a child. Among the 50+ talks we delivered, exactly two were directly about React, and one more if we count the libraries with React's name in it.

What is being talked about and not talked about in a React community? What is it about React that leads to this phenomenon? And most importantly, what and how do we learn about React by, weirdly, not hearing about React? As much as sharing some passing moments of 36 weeks of <RK /> at home, this talk hopes pose these questions that we may explore together down the road.
