Well the truth is you can build React apps any way you like. React doesn&#x27;t dictate anything beyond the rendering. Redux, with Redux-Immutable &amp; Immutable.js is my current &quot;stack&quot; (hate that term) - but when I first got started I built a component library with barely any logic behind it. That&#x27;s when I realised just how great React is.<p>It&#x27;s made building my web apps front end fun again and bring in big changes is so much quicker than old school dom manipulation.<p>Took me a long time to become a believer, intuitively I rallied against frameworks, but React is amazing.
