React is fast, and so your CMS should be

If your content is always fetched from a single geographical location, there’s no point in building a website with a serverless architecture. Dato CMS offers your content from a CDN with edges all around the globe, minimizing your React app latency.

React CMS example

DatoCMS Preview API = content editors happiness

If you're using React as a single-page application (SPA), you can easily switch GraphQL endpoint to fetch real-time previews of the changes you make to any content stored in DatoCMS (text, images, videos). Give it a try, it's magic!

// src/App.js
import { GraphQLClient, ClientContext } from 'graphql-hooks'
const endpoint = process.env.PREVIEW_MODE ?
'https://graphql.datocms.com/preview' :
'https://graphql.datocms.com/';
const client = new GraphQLClient({ url: endpoint });
function App() {
return (
<ClientContext.Provider value={client}>
<Movie />
</ClientContext.Provider>
);
}
// src/Movie.js
import React from "react";
import { useQuery } from "graphql-hooks";
const Movie = () => {
const { loading, error, data } = useQuery(
query: `{
movie(filter: { title: { eq: "Inception" } }) {
title
releaseDate
actors {
name
}
}
}`
);
if (loading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
if (error) return <div>Something bad happened</div>;
return (
<div>
<h1>{data.movie.title}</h1>
{/* ... */}
</div>
);
};

A component-centric CMS, just like React

Reacts makes using components easy right from the get-go, and you should expect the same from your CMS. A component-based approach allows developers to clearly divide work amongst themselves and progress without having to rely on each other every step of the way.
