+author: Daniel Lo Nigro

+
+I'm happy to announce the release of ReactJS.NET 1.1! This is a minor release and includes a number of changes and fixes since version 1.1:
+
+ * React version upgraded from 0.10.0 to 0.11.1.
+ * Fixed an [access violation exception](https://github.com/reactjs/React.NET/issues/28) when running in Release mode. *Thanks to [Paul Irwin](https://github.com/paulirwin) for reporting and [jlchmura](https://github.com/jlchmura) for fixing*.
+ * Always transform JSX in bundles, even when the very first file doesn't have the `/** @jsx React.DOM */` directive. *Thanks to [Rick Beerendonk](https://github.com/rickbeerendonk)*.
+ * [ES6 transforms](/guides/es6.html) are now turned off by default since they can conflict with other ES6 transpilers like Traceur. [Check the documentation](/guides/es6.html) to see how to enable them. *Thanks to [Aleksander Heintz](https://github.com/Alxandr)*.
+
+Have fun, and as always, please feel free to send feedback or bug reports
+[on GitHub](https://github.com/reactjs/React.NET).

+title: ES6 Features
+---
+
+React can optionally use some ECMAScript 6 features thanks to the bundled version of [JSTransform](https://github.com/facebook/jstransform). ECMAScript 6 (or "ES6" for short) is the next version of ECMAScript/JavaScript and contains several useful features:
+
+* **[Arrow functions](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/arrow_functions)** — A syntax for inline lambda functions similar to C#. These are very useful when combined with the `map` and `filter` methods of arrays:
+
+```javascript
+var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];
+var doubled = numbers.map(number => number * 2); // [2, 4, 6, 8]
+```
+
+Arrow functions also implicitly bind `this`, so you do not need to write `.bind(this)` when passing around a function as a callback.
+
+* **Concise methods** — You no longer need to write `: function` in your object literals:
+
+```javascript{13,16}
+// The old way
+var OldAndBusted = React.createClass({
+  render: function() {
+    // ...
+  },
+  doStuff: function() {
+    // ...
+  }
+});
+
+// The new way
+var NewHotness = React.createClass({
+  render() {
+    // ...
+  },
+  doStuff() {
+    // ...
+  }
+});
+```
+
+* **[Classes](http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=strawman:maximally_minimal_classes)** — Similar to the class systems included in JavaScript frameworks such as Prototype and MooTools, but will (eventually) be native to JavaScript
+
+```javascript
+class AwesomeStuff {
+  add(first, second) {
+    return first + second;
+  }
+}
+
+var foo = new AwesomeStuff();
+foo.add(2, 3); // 5
+```
+
+* **[Short object notation](http://ariya.ofilabs.com/2013/02/es6-and-object-literal-property-value-shorthand.html)**
+* And more! See the [JSTransform source code](https://github.com/facebook/jstransform/tree/master/visitors), you never know what goodies you'll find.
+
+How to use
+----------
+To use the ES6 transforms, you'll need to enable them. For ASP.NET MVC sites, this is done in your `ReactConfig.cs` by calling `.SetUseHarmony(true)`:
+
+```csharp{2}
+ReactSiteConfiguration.Configuration
+  .SetUseHarmony(true)
+  .AddScript("~/Content/Sample.jsx");
+```
+If you are using [MSBuild to precompile your JSX](/guide/msbuild.html), you also need to enable it in MSBuild via the `UseHarmony="true"` flag in your build script (`TransformJsx.proj` by default):
+
+```xml
+<TransformJsx SourceDir="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)" UseHarmony="true" />
+```
