Before you begin, you’ll need to have a Formbox form. If you don’t have one yet, you can create a new form by following the steps in the Introduction guide. Once you have your form, make a note of the form’s endpoint url in the setup tab of your form page, as you’ll need it later.Creating a new React project

. You should see a new React application running.
