The React core team would disagree with that. It really depends on definition.

That being said, perhaps my wording was too strong. The point I was trying to make was that React provides relatively little outside of the DOM abstraction and has little in the way of magic syntax, etc. It's extreme fast to learn for someone with JS experience.

It isn't until you start layering on other libraries like Redux that things get complicated, but there is absolutely no requirement to do that.
