Learning Redux

Setting up JSX

To be able to use JSX, we need to install the React plugin for Babel. It will then compile JSX into proper calls to the React API. Firstly, we need to install the babel-preset-react package:

npm install --save-dev babel-preset-react

In addition to installing the preset, we also need to tell Babel to use it. Edit .babelrc, find the "presets" property, and add "react" to the array. It should look like this now:

{
  "presets":[ "es2015", "react" ],
  "plugins": [ "transform-object-rest-spread" ]
}
