REST would refer to what you do with server side stuff. React is for building rich and responsive user interfaces but at some point you need to grab some data from a server or save some data to a server. Have you looked at that yet?

Nope purely front end and UI stuff and I've very little about that yet let alone anything else :D

Ok that's fine. If you are planning on being a front end developer only that is perfectly ok and as such you would not be coding any REST services or other types of web services but you would need to write the client code to consume them.
