Despite explaining that XP stands for "cross platform", I still think that this is mis-named and many will assume it relates to one of Microsoft's biggest ever brand names with global recognition.

At first glance I decided not to read the article because I thought it irrelevant due to the XP.

Don't worry, most of the target audience of devs wasn't even 10 when Windows XP was a thing that mattered...

End of Support for Windows XP was 2014, and still had a large home/enterprise install base at that time.
ReactXP: optimized performance for Windows XP running on an Athlon XP with a Titan Xp. :D
How many XP do you need to be proficient with this pattern? Really hope it's not a grind-fest.
"React" part is also used by windows clone. React should be completely renamed today for reader's convenience.
Just like Visual Studio Code :)
