You clearly didn't read the article. One of the biggest misconception is that React is a framework. All React does is render views dynamically. It gives you almost nothing else. React is an alternative to manipulating the DOM using jquery, which usually leads to hard-to-debug spaghetti view code.

I've been doing React for a few months now. I definitely like it better than Ember/Handlebars, Angular or vanilla jQuery for managing views. It's much easier to reason out what your view looks like and how it can change.
