Is it possible to use React in a ServiceNow instance? Is anyone doing this in production? Pros? Cons? Please let me know and thanks in advance for your help.

Hey Robert,

 

Short answer is yes, but it's not supported. You can package your app, import it into a Style Sheet, then reference it via a NOW portal widget.

 

The external blog post showing how to package a React app and publish it to your NOW instance: https://pishchulin.medium.com/react-applications-in-servicenow-service-portal-36d774892410

 

Also, take a look at previous Community Posts:

 

Hope this helps!

The Reactor app enables you to build and deliver React applications directly from a ServiceNow instance. No need for an external development environment or pre-compilation. You can ship apps or individual components as part of your scoped apps. It also supports JSX.

This may bring ServiceNow frontend development to the next level.

I don't think for now, but may be after few updates.
