The one reason I'm looking at React is as a way of creating HTML Components.
All I want are droppable units of HTML/JS/CSS that I can include in any project at any given time which solve a particular View challenge.

It is interesting that no one talks about React as a way to create a droppable component.

Is it because React doesn't make it easy or it doesn't work? Or is it because the idea of a component isn't seen as a necessary thing?
Imagine having components which solve UI challenges so that when you needed one you just went to a "library" & grabbed it and dropped it into your react solution.
Here's my best example of that: a file dialog where user needs to select a file that will be used.
