Django and React: Perfect Together
summary
Claim: React replaces Django templates to manage complex UI state and lets Django become an API layer. Concrete tools and steps: install node and npm, configure webpack and django-webpack-loader, create entry JSX files and run a webpack dev server for hot reloads, and deploy Django to serve the built bundles in production. State strategy: use component state for local bits and Redux plus AJAX calls to Django REST endpoints for global state and auth.
