This lets us get from a HostInstance to the nearest DevToolsInstance without relying on `findFiberByHostInstance` and `fiberToDevToolsInstanceMap`. We already did the equivalent of this for Resources in HostHoistables. One issue before was that we'd ideally get away from the `fiberToDevToolsInstanceMap` map in general since we should ideally not treat Fibers as stateful but they could be replaced by something else stateful in principle. This PR also addresses Virtual Instances. Now you can select a DOM node and have it select a Virtual Instance if that's the nearest parent since the parent doesn't have to be a Fiber anymore. However, the other reason for this change is that I'd like to get rid of the need for the `findFiberByHostInstance` from being injected. A renderer should not need to store a reference back from its instance to a Fiber. Without the Synthetic Event system this wouldn't be needed by the renderer so we should be able to remove it. We also don't really need it since we have all the information by just walking the commit to collect the nodes if we just maintain our own Map. There's one subtle nuance that the different renderers do. Typically a HostInstance is the same thing as a PublicInstance in React but technically in Fabric they're not the same. So we need to translate between PublicInstance and HostInstance. I just hardcoded the Fabric implementation of this since it's the only known one that does this but could feature detect other ones too if necessary. On one hand it's more resilient to refactors to not rely on injected helpers and on hand it doesn't follow changes to things like this. For the conflict resolution I added in #30494 I had to make that specific to DOM so we can move the DOM traversal to the backend instead of the injected helper. [ghstack-poisoned]
React ·

React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
- Declarative: React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Design simple views for each state in your application, and React will efficiently update and render just the right components when your data changes. Declarative views make your code more predictable, simpler to understand, and easier to debug.
- Component-Based: Build encapsulated components that manage their own state, then compose them to make complex UIs. Since component logic is written in JavaScript instead of templates, you can easily pass rich data through your app and keep the state out of the DOM.
- Learn Once, Write Anywhere: We don't make assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, so you can develop new features in React without rewriting existing code. React can also render on the server using Node and power mobile apps using React Native.
Learn how to use React in your project.
Installation
React has been designed for gradual adoption from the start, and you can use as little or as much React as you need:
- Use Quick Start to get a taste of React.
- Add React to an Existing Project to use as little or as much React as you need.
- Create a New React App if you're looking for a powerful JavaScript toolchain.
Documentation
You can find the React documentation on the website.
Check out the Getting Started page for a quick overview.
The documentation is divided into several sections:
- Quick Start
- Tutorial
- Thinking in React
- Installation
- Describing the UI
- Adding Interactivity
- Managing State
- Advanced Guides
- API Reference
- Where to Get Support
- Contributing Guide
You can improve it by sending pull requests to this repository.
Examples
We have several examples on the website. Here is the first one to get you started:
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
function HelloMessage({ name }) {
return <div>Hello {name}</div>;
}
const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<HelloMessage name="Taylor" />);
This example will render "Hello Taylor" into a container on the page.
You'll notice that we used an HTML-like syntax; we call it JSX. JSX is not required to use React, but it makes code more readable, and writing it feels like writing HTML.
