How to set up Umbraco and React JS

I'm trying to build a website using Umbraco 8 CMS, but I want to write the front end code in React JS.

Is this possible?

Solution

  • Umbraco Heartcore would be the way to go. But I believe it's only available with the Cloud version.

    If you're not using the cloud version, you could try using Umbraco API Controllers to expose your data as JSON.

    Then from your React application you can call the endpoints.
