React Jam aims to be a first-of-its-kind online event where React devs create a game in 10 days. We’ve gotten some amazing judges/sponsors and we’re really excited to see how the React + game dev communities will respond to our event.
More broadly, our hope is that React Jam will help millions of React developers realize that it's quite easy to create their first game using a familiar framework. Building games with React might sound crazy / suboptimal, but React Native seemed ridiculous a decade ago and is now ubiquitous. We think the same could happen with games too!
Would you build a game using React? Why / why not?
