React.js - Get started in Dart #1

Happy New Year folks!
In this three-part series, we will go through the React.js homepage examples and learn how to reproduce these in Dart using the js interop package.
Before we begin:
1. Set up your project
Set up your web project quickly with Stagehand:
$ mkdir getting_started_react && cd getting_started_react
$ stagehand web-simple
2. Install the js interop package
Ensure that the js dependency is added to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
js: ^0.6.0
Save and run pub get to update your dependencies.
3. Import the React.js libraries
In web/index.html in the <head> before <script defer src="main.dart.js"></script> import the dev versions of the library:
<!-- Note: when deploying, replace "development.js" with "production.min.js". -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/react@16/umd/react.development.js" crossorigin></script>
<script src="https://unpkg.com/react-dom@16/umd/react-dom.development.js" crossorigin></script>
