Right now a few of us are working here and there on making React play nicely with areas of our product that were built a few years ago. As you can imagine this has presented some very unique, fun and oh so rewarding challenges.
This decision didn't happen overnight though. The web evolves quickly and there are lots of shiny new libraries and frameworks to chase. More often then not we'll pass on new toys, but when the tool seems to fit our job we'll try it out and see how it plays into our workflow.
It's nothing short of amazing working in an engineering culture that understands the importance of researching our options, considering the trade-offs, and then making educated choices based on risk/time vs. reward.
