Thanks for the guide. Looks awesome! I've recently started working on a SPA in React and was desperately googling around information. Glad to see it in one document.

BTW - I can see that the section on Flux and Alt is still left to be written. Any idea when you'll have the drafts for those sections ready? Lastly, it would be nice if you could contrast Alt with Reflux and give us your recommendations on what to work with.

Thanks a lot, again!

At the rate I am going, I am hoping by next week. But, the author of Alt has already written an amazing getting started guide: http://goatslacker.github.io/alt/guide/ - check it out!

As for a contrast between Alt/Reflux, I am hoping others using different Flux libraries will contribute and share their views, I will also link to some comparisons others have already done, such as: http://pixelhunter.me/post/110248593059/flux-solutions-compa.... But if I have time to, I'll give it a try!

Thank you! This guide is very well-structured and easy to read.
Completely new to React, your introduction was spot on. Many thanks.
Great guide. Thanks a bunch. Glad you're feeling better! :-)
How hard would it be to adapt this to non SPA?
It's not really that SPA specific, if you want to just use React for the View, then Part 1 and Part 4 (to be written) is probably all you need to get started.

Collectively, all the parts of the primer, together should give you the tools you need if you want to build a SPA.
