/react Makes Slack
summary
A project turns JSX into Slack Block Kit JSON using React Reconciler and sends it to Slack via Slack Bolt so React components render as Slack modals, images, sections and inputs. The proof‑of‑concept demonstrates typing into a modal input and an end‑to‑end submit handler; the renderer flattens nested components, supports reusable components, is open source, and currently lacks some controls (radio buttons, dropdowns).
