Bringing Components to Legacy Code

Not all systems allow the code to take over the entire rendering of your app. Sometimes you want to modernize and scale your code using libraries such as React on systems that already have a lot of legacy interactive code, or a CMS that must controls what is rendered in the page.

This talk shows techniques to adopt an existing environment so modern libraries can coexist with existing environments, where the DOM dictates the components it needs.


Recorded at a ReactNYC meetup on September 2017.

Great technique! Exactly the kind of thing we were looking for to integrate React in legacy server-rendered applications for my team... here at Booking.com 😉
