Hello Everyone,

I am working on Kibana 5.6.4 and I want to upgrade to Kibana 6.x. But the major thing is Kibana 6.x is moved towards to React. I am new to reactJS and Is there any material related to react which can help me to understand the new code base ?

Your help will be really appreciated.

Hello,

I am not sure if I understand your question. Are you trying to build a plugin into 6.x?

Just a regular upgrade doesn't require any knowledge of react.  
Here are our upgrade documents for Kibana: [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.0/upgrade.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/7.0/upgrade.html)

Thanks,  
Bhavya

I just want to understand the code base of Kibana. I know the code base which is written in AngularJS and I am familiar with it. But as Kibana is moved towards React, Is there any guide for learning the new structure of Kibana ?

In short, Which resources are used by kibana developers to learn the ReactJS ? Is there any blog or reference ?
