This seems cool, but I'm a bit confused (background: I've been working with web components and polymer for the past couple of months, but have only read a couple articles on React, apologies if this is a dumb question).<p>This says that react renders to web components, but it looks to me like react is just adding a web component to the area of the DOM that it's controlling. Is more going on here? e.g. doing the same thing with jquery:<p><pre><code> $('<core-icon>').attr('src', "//www.polymer-project.org/images/icons/android.svg").appendTo('#jquery-root');
</code></pre>
Is the idea that React is doing data binding to the src attribute?
How would data syncing work between React and the components seem to be a more important question. One doesn't really need React to create a web component in this example.
Polymer uses standard 2-way data binding. How does this fit into React's flow? I'd love to see an implementation of Polymer using the Flux architecture.
