getDOMNode DOMElement getDOMNode() If this component has been mounted into the DOM, this returns the corresponding native browser DOM element. This method is useful for reading values out of the DOM, such as form field values and performing DOM measurements. When render returns null or false, this.getDOMNode() returns null. getDOMNode is deprecated and has been replaced with ReactDOM.findDOMNode(). This method is not available on ES6 class components that extend React.Component. It may be r

React React is the entry point to the React library. If you're using one of the prebuilt packages it's available as a global; if you're using CommonJS modules you can require() it. React.Component class Component This is the base class for React Components when they're defined using ES6 classes. See Reusable Components for how to use ES6 classes with React. For what methods are actually provided by the base class, see the Component API. React.createClass ReactClass createClass(object spe

However, there are lots of applications that require you to read some data and flow it back into your program.
