1. What is React Plugin?

Probably , you are interested:
If you are using the Atom editor to program React applications, you should install React Plugin. This plugin helps Atom highlight JSX code.
OK, as you know, the React uses JSX (Javascript Syntax eXtension). The syntax of JSX is the combination between Javascript and XML. The JSX files have the extension such as jsx.
When not installing the React Plugin, the JSX file is handled as a normal text file. It is very difficult for you to observe codes. Below is the illustration of a JSX file opened on Atom (the React Plugin is not installed).
Excellent! Everything changes after you install React Plugin !!

2. Install React Plugin

On the Windows, open CMD window (or open the Terminal window if you use Ubuntu operating system or Mac OS operating system) and execute the following command:
apm install react
That is all to be performed!!
