+
+The project shows how to integrate React components into GWT application. GWT backend consists of Login service which allows users to create login sessions. 
+
+## Adding React component
+
+EmbeddedReact.ReactComponentProps componentProps = new EmbeddedReact.ReactComponentProps();
+componentProps.onGoToGWTAppClicked = new MouseEventHandler() {
+	@Override
+	public void onMouseEvent(MouseEvent event) {
+		setReactComponentVisibility(false);
+		String sessionID = Cookies.getCookie("sid");
+		if (sessionID == null)
+			setLoginFormVisibility(true);
+		else
+			checkWithServerIfSessionIdIsStillLegal(sessionID, false);
+
+	}
+};
+componentProps.currentLoggedUser = result.getUserName();
+ReactDOM.render(React.createElement(EmbeddedReact::loggedInComponent, componentProps), Document.get().getElementById("reactAppDiv"));
+
+## Build and run solution
