How to use ReactJS + PHP?

Question

PHP

I have no experience with PHP and React, so I don't know how to formulate the question correctly.

The situation is this.
I need to write a project in PHP, where there will be registration and authorization of users, and users will be able to create various posts there.
But to this we still need to add a very simple admin panel written in ReactJS. So that the admin can edit any content that is on the site.

Do I understand correctly that first I need to write a site for ordinary users using PHP, and then separately write an admin panel in React, which will simply communicate with PHP via the API, which is used on a regular site?

Answer 1

Correctly.
Only to communicate with PHP via API, you must first write this API in PHP
