Jordan, where is this conf taking place and what time (PST here).

You say this is not DOM or some hybrid solution?

Either this is too good to be true or ground breaking stuff.

Do you mean that react could completely get rid of having to write stuff in Java or Objective-C?

Yes, with React Native you'll be able to write native mobile apps completely in JavaScript.

Yes, you need a Mac in order to run the simulator or build to a device.
