React is a UI library developed at Facebook to facilitate the creation of interactive, stateful & reusable UI components. This article will help you create your first 'Hello World' webpage with React without knowledge of Node / npm. Steps to create Hello World page 1) Create new .txt file and save as .html on your computer. 2) Add react.js, react-dom.js and browser.min.js links from CDN library to HTML header. 3) Add div tag with id="content" in body as a parent container to display custom text. 4) Add script type="text/babel" tag and start writing react code inside it.  type="text/babel" helps browser to render JSX inside script. JSX is a Javascript XML syntax transform. This lets you write HTML-ish tags in your Javascript.  5) Use ReactDOM's Render method. Our first argument is the component we want to render (i.e. h1), and the second is the DOM node it should mount to (i.e. div id="content"). 6
