How to Use WordPress with React to Build a Modern Web App

1. Access the WP REST API from your frondend.
2. Add a custom post type and expose it to the API.
3. Build a React app backed by this API.
4. Handle React Hooks (and create a custom one)

React handles the user interface, while WordPress serves as the content management system and data source. Install and configure WordPress normally. Choose or develop a theme that is minimal, as the frontend will be handled by React. Utilize the REST API to expose the data you need.
