javascript - How can one tell the version of React running at runtime in the browser?

Question

Is there a way to know the runtime version of React in the browser?

Answer 1

React.version is what you are looking for.

It is undocumented though (as far as I know) so it may not be a stable feature (i.e. though unlikely, it may disappear or change in future releases).

Example with React imported as a script

const REACT_VERSION = React.version;

ReactDOM.render(
  <div>React version: {REACT_VERSION}</div>,
  document.getElementById('root')
);

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/react/15.1.0/react-dom.min.js"></script>

<div id="root"></div>
