This document introduces João Belchior, a front-end developer with experience in Drupal and React. It discusses a project to decouple a Drupal site from its frontend using React. The project uses Drupal 8 to handle the backend and API, React for the frontend interface, and a shared React style guide. This allows for faster development, a reusable component library, and a happier client and developers.
