Is Fabric an alternative to React? I am unable to understand what is this app for.

No relation or similarity to React; this isn't a UI toolkit but a platform SDK.

Fabric is the rebranding of Crashlytics, a crash-reporting SDK, combined with the Twitter ecosystem SDKs, and their ad platform, and so on. It's a "Twitter Inside" SDK.

To quote an earlier comment of mine:

"a souped-up Twitter SDK + Crashlytics + their bundled ad platform MoPub. The idea is you'll develop your app with this SDK and get crash reporting, usage stats, ad serving, 'Sign in via Twitter', Twitter integration, and [a bunch of] other stuff for free."

It seems closer to pingdom-for-apps, with added Twitter.
