• javascript library
• to build interactive UI
• data driven
• open source
• by Facebook Inc.

React trends

• functional paradigm
   
• stateless components
   
• redux!
   
• it works !!!
  • separation++

but what if ...

• we go in the opposite direction. Because, why not.
   
• let's imagine a component:
  • more than stateful
    (keeps state and a model of the world)
  • able to learn through user interaction

DEMO!
( and code)

PROS

• smart UI with an interesting, novel UX
   
• serverless
   
• blank initial state
   
• good use case: form autocomplete
   
• room for wild
  experimentation (RL)

CONS

• no validation, high risk of overfitting
   
• computationally intensive
   
• blank initial state
   
• other use cases?

Thanks!
