var App = React.createClass({
  getInitialState: function() {
    return {myModel: new myBackboneModel({items: [1, 2, 3]})};
  },

  componentDidMount: function() {
    $(this.refs.placeholder).append($('<span />'));
  },

  componentWillUnmount: function() {
    // Clean up work here.
  },

  shouldComponentUpdate: function() {
    // Let's just never update this component again.
    return false;
  },

  render: function() {
    return <div ref="placeholder"/>;
  }
});

ReactDOM.render(<App />, mountNode);
