What is the new React Foundation and how will it be governed? Seth Webster, its new Executive Director, details the new structure. To ensure continuity, Meta will retain a majority voting stake for the initial years, while the foundation itself will be housed under the Linux Foundation to adopt best practices for open-source stewardship.
The founding members were selected based on long-term engineering investments, combining two key strengths:
- Partners like Callstack and Software Mansion, who build foundational ecosystem libraries.
- Large-scale partners like Amazon and Microsoft, who provide high-intensity testing environments, enabling rapid discovery of edge cases.
This structure provides unified stewardship for both React and React Native, ensuring long-term stability.
