React development is led by a small dedicated team working full time at Facebook. It also receives contributions from people all over the world.
\nThe React team members work full time on the core component APIs, the engine that powers React DOM and React Native, React DevTools, and the React documentation website.
\nCurrent members of the React team are listed in alphabetical order below.

\nRachel wrote a book about UI animation once and worked with MDN and the W3C on the web animations API. Now she is busy with education materials and community engineering on the React team. Secretly, she is an award-winning cartoonist for teenage girls. Catch her making fancy tea with lukewarm water in the microkitchen.

\nRicky majored in theoretical math and somehow found himself on the React Native team for a couple years before joining the React team. When he’s not programming you can find him snowboarding, biking, climbing, golfing, or closing GitHub issues that do not match the issue template.

\nSeth started programming as a kid growing up in Tucson, AZ. After school, he was bitten by the music bug and was a touring musician for about 10 years before returning to work, starting with Intuit. In his spare time, he loves taking pictures and flying for animal rescues in the northeastern United States.
\nReact was originally created by Jordan Walke. Today, React has over a thousand open source contributors. We’d like to recognize a few people who have made significant contributions to React and its documentation in the past and have helped maintain them over the years:
\nThis list is not exhaustive.
\nWe’d like to give special thanks to Tom Occhino and Adam Wolff for their guidance and support over the years. We’d also like to thank all the volunteers who translated React into other languages.
