Having no news from Sharif (see Sharif, where are you?) is a good reason for me to seriously dive into React, npm, webpack, jest and all these tools.

I still didn’t get npm run build to execute (see Monday, July 29, 2024), so I tried to grasp the problem from the roots: I read a series of basic introductions to React and JSX:

• Learn React > Quick Start

• Writing Markup with JSX

• JavaScript in JSX with Curly Braces

• The export declaration.

• Export and Import

What I don’t understand: How does a browser “know” whether a script is written in JSX and not in plain JavaScript?
