Jordan Walke, who is the creator of ReactJS recently announced in the micro-blogging platform, that after a decade he is leaving Facebook. Walke had been working as a software engineer at the social media giant, where he was working on the React JavaScript library.
In a post, Walke tweeted that after spending more than a decade at the social media giant, he is finally leaving the company. However, there lies a good reason for this resignation. All these years, after working for a company, he is now going to start one of his own. However, the details of the company have not been disclosed yet.
Replying to this tweet, he also mentioned that working at Facebook is an incredible experience for him. Besides this, Walke mentioned that from now on he will also be investing more in startups as opportunities arise as well as investing in open-source projects/communities including ReactJS related technologies, UI frameworks, programming languages and other such.
Graduated from the University of Washington, Walke not only created ReactJS but also ReasonML, which is a fast and type-safe code that leverages the JavaScript & OCaml ecosystems.
On a concluding note, Walke acknowledged everyone for the outpouring of encouragement and gratitude. He said, “An incredible - no unbelievable - story so far. A new chapter begins. One paragraph at a time.”
