React codebase looked like it could be a gold mine of knowledge... I was super intrigued about react's suspense, scheduling, reconciling, etc. So, lets see what can I learn from this exploration.\n\n# Resources\nBefore jumping into this, make sure to grasp some of the basic concepts, here is a reading list that helped me:\n\n* [Article: Basic Theoretical Concepts](https://github.com/reactjs/react-basic)\n* [React Docs: Components - Instances - Elements](https://reactjs.org/blog/2015/12/18/react-components-elements-and-instances.html)\n* [React Docs: Reconciliation](https://reactjs.org/docs/reconciliation.html)\n* [React Docs: React Design Principles](https://reactjs.org/docs/design-principles.html)\n* [Talk: Andrew Clark - What's Next for React](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV1271hd9ew)\n* [Talk: Keynote - Andrew Clark at @ReactEurope 2017](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QW5TE4vrklU)\n* [Talk: Lin Clark - A Cartoon Intro to Fiber](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCuYPiUIONs)\n* [Article: - Korneliusz Caputa - Look inside fiber](http://makersden.io/blog/look-inside-fiber)\n* [Article:  React Fiber Architecture by acdlite](https://github.com/acdlite/react-fiber-architecture)\n* [Talk: Brandon Dail - Algebraic effects, Fibers, Coroutines Oh my!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GcrT0SBSnI)\n* [Blog Post: Didact Fiber - build your own react](https://engineering.hexacta.com/didact-fiber-incremental-reconciliation-b2fe028dcaec)\n* TO BE WATCHED - [Talk: Building React From Scratch](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MAD4Oly9yg)\n* TO BE WATCHED - [Talk: Tiny React Renderer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9zFfIww3Go)\n* [\"Article\": Fiber Principles by sebmarkbage](https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/7942)\n\n---\n\n* TO BE WATCHED - [Discussion: Why, What, and How of React Fiber with Dan Abramov and Andrew Clark](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crM1iRVGpGQ)\n\n\nWIP: https://drive.draw.io/?lightbox=1\u0026highlight=0000ff\u0026edit=_blank\u0026layers=1\u0026nav=1#G15oIi3Rx_0zGmgNOLkq8aqCJm7KIFq5SQ\n\n# Other\n* https://github.com/reactjs/react-future\n* https://github.com/koba04/react-fiber-resources","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcanastro%2Freverse-engineer-react","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcanastro%2Freverse-engineer-react","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcanastro%2Freverse-engineer-react/lists"}
