Syntax grammar style

Just curious if there any particular reason that the entire application is written with

export default React.createClass( {

instead of

export default class Foo extends React.Component {

Not an issue, just wanted to understand rationale...

Please have a look at my comments on why I prefer createClass over class: reactjs/core-notes#15 (comment)
Ultimately, favor stateless component over stateful component.

Just following up, interestingly FB seems determined to deprecate React.createClass, or move it to a separate package, what does this spell out for StarHackIt or any thoughts?

I followed up on some of their notes, and they were running 80% coverage on class usage using their ES2015 converter..
