What does HackerNews think of react-canvas?

High performance <canvas> rendering for React components

Language: JavaScript

I remember Flipboard using canvas to render their UI before using react, which has the same idea, you can look at the repo and their post about it:

Flipboard made react canvas to render directly to canvas instead of the dom. https://github.com/Flipboard/react-canvas
React and angular basically both do the same thing: render a component tree to (usually) the DOM. You use a framework to make this easier for you and I think react does that way better. But if it's all about raw data manipulation and using that canvas lib, you may not need either?

Never used it myself, but the guys from Flipboard made this react canvas renderer which might be useful for you: https://github.com/Flipboard/react-canvas
