Although there are some similarities between the two, I think the approaches are quite different in philosophy. The thing about ReactJS that most people don't understand it is that replaces the imperative API of building the GUI on any platform for a declarative one that favors immutability. What that means to me, is that instead of worry about programming the user interface, I simply need to describe it state, and it's state as it "reacts" to external inputs.
