I'm using React on a few smaller projects where I didn't want to over engineer the whole Flux architecture. I put together the app using Backbone (for the models and collections) and used React for the view layer.

The models and collections worked great as "stores" and I used the simple dispatcher from Flux to handle the actions being sent.

While I really like the Flux pattern, for smaller'ish apps it did seem a bit of overkill.

A couple articles I was referencing for BB and React:
