1. Seaside & ReactJS
Johan Brichau

2. What?
• Hybrid web application:
• Seaside for server-side components
• ReactJS for client-side components
• Integration
• Client trigger actions server-side
• Sharing of state

3. Why?
• Best of both worlds: server-side and client-side.
• Smalltalk backend with Seaside for server-side rendered parts
• Client-side for reactive UI
• Extend and improve an existing Seaside application
• ReactJS concepts are familiar for Seaside users

4. Gist
• The view logic of a Seaside component is implemented as a ReactJS
component
• Synchronize component state between client and server
• Invoke actions on the server
