# Using React with Astro
-```
+This example showcases Astro's built-in support for [React](https://reactjs.org/).
+
+## Installation
+
+### Automatic
+
+Bootstrap your Astro project with this template!
+
+```shell
npm init astro -- --template framework-react
```
-This example showcases Astro's built-in support for [React](https://reactjs.org/).
+### Manual
+
+To use React components in your Astro project:
+
+1. Install `@astrojs/renderer-react`
+
+ ```shell
+ npm i @astrojs/renderer-react
+ ```
+
+2. Add `"@astrojs/renderer-react"` to your `renderers` in `astro.config.mjs`.
+
+ ```js
+ export default {
+ renderers: [
+ "@astrojs/renderer-react",
+ // optionally, others...
+ ]
+ }
+ ```
-No configuration is needed to enable React support—just start writing React components in `src/components`.
+## Usage
-> **Note**: If used, components _must_ include the JSX factory (ex. `import React from "react"`). Astro is unable to determine which framework is used without having the [JSX factory](https://mariusschulz.com/blog/per-file-jsx-factories-in-typescript#what-is-a-jsx-factory) in scope.
+Write your React components as `.jsx` or `.tsx` files in your project.
