Is it possible to build a custom React renderer in a Twitter thread? I don't know, let's see! 👇🏿

This thread is not going to be 100% technically accurate with the right terminology and all. I'm going to describe things as I understood them when I learned this stuff myself. Think of React as a library that adds, updates and deletes components. That's it. It's only responsible for managing, but not rendering them.

That's what a renderer is for. React notifies renderer about any component changes so that it knows when/how to update the UI.
