React was originally a project built at Facebook to manage its ads. Now it's used by Pinterest, Twitter, Asana, Uber, and more. Here's how it started.
React popularized a completely new way of programming that makes building websites much faster, easier, and more consistent.If you've ever liked a status on Facebook, tweeted from your phone, checked off an item on your to-do list on Asana, or pinned a photo on Pinterest, then you've crossed paths with React.
React started within Facebook, and the team used it for two years before releasing it as open source. That move opened up the doors to allowing anyone to use, modify, or download it for free. In the years since, React has become one of the most popular tools on the web, and is used by companies like Airbnb, Twitter, Uber, Asana, and Pinterest.
"If you're building some sort of website, you want to make sure it's something people want to work with," Bergenhem told Business Insider."We kind of see a critical need for people not to have to reinvent the wheel."In 2011, Jordan Walke, a software engineer at Facebook, created the first version of React — but only for Facebook's use. He was working on the codebase for Facebook advertising product, but at the time, ads were difficult to create and manage.
