ReactJS (JSX) syntax highlighting in Visual Studio 2015

Question

I'm reading about "built-in support of jsx syntax in VS 2015", but can't find it. Is it hidden in settings of IDE, or I need to install some extension?

Just wanted to try it out. Started with statement import React from 'react' and got intellisense errors. What dissapointing experience. – Vlado Pandžić Jun 24 '16 at 10:51

Although it's not a direct fix to your problem, you could try out http://code.visualstudio.com/. Visual studio has all kinds of problems with these new web dev tools. Another example is the npm - not installed issue.
