Meta's library for building UIs from components written in JSX. It is a UI layer, not a full framework, so routing, data fetching, and builds come from the tools you pair it with.

Reach for it when:
- Single-page apps
- Tauri and Electron frontends
- Anything that benefits from the largest component ecosystem
