React Conf Giveaway Winner


I would like to thank everybody that entered the giveaway. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be to choose a winner. I know that everyone who entered tried very hard. Before going into who won, here’s a little recap of what was submitted.

David Wells wrote about Isomorphic React utilizing the power of node to keep consistent code on both the client and server.

James Burnett Submitted two articles, Complex Drag and Drop in React and Setting up React with Rails and Jest.

David Chang, who previously wrote the insanely popular State of Flux, submitted React Style Guide.

Jack Callister wrote about building a test suite in React.

Only three people submitted, which made it even harder to choose a winner. When starting this giveaway I didn’t really have a clear idea on how I was going to grade the articles. I ended up deciding that I should let whoever had the most influencial article win. Due to this, the winner is David Chang. His article on React style patterns, in a span of two days, holds over 35% of all pageviews on this site. It was also on the front page of Hacker News.

Conclusion

I would just like to say thanks to all four of you for entering the giveaway. The community is better off with the guides you have each written!
