I’ve been thinking about a new challenge: Integrating React into XenForo. After coming across discussions like these:
I decided to give it a shot.
I managed to integrate React into XenForo in a way that’s similar to the “islands” architecture used by Astro. Essentially, certain parts of the page are built using a different framework (in this case, React), while the rest of the site continues running on XenForo as usual.
So instead of replacing everything, React is only used in specific sections, and the rest remains native to XenForo.
You can see the result here: https://xf.synapse-themes.cc/ (check out the navbar).
And yes this is purchaseable! Not to farm sales or anything, but if anybody likes that and would like to have it for their forum, you are free to purchase it here.
