React

And just like Node.js, React uses workers to answer to HTTP requests in a non-blocking fashion.

This means React will allow a asynchronous behavior for PHP code, improving overall application speed by answering to user queries as soon as they're made and the response is available, instead of cramming them into a queue and forcing the user to wait.

React works on an application's low level, dealing with requests, responses, streams, client/server interactions, processes and so on.

React can basically be used to improve the way an app or website runs on the available infrastructure.

Since React uses some advanced networking and programming practices, it is best if you read the documentation first.
