Argues an entire React app is a pure function UI whose output is produced by composing small presentation components with vertical higher‑order components; builds a React Native TextInput wrapper, layers HOCs for props and keyboard events, and shows a message input stack that runs. Implements a subscribeable, lifecycle‑aware six-line connect replacement that mimics react‑redux connect, composes multiple HOCs with a compose function, and demonstrates that the approach actually re‑renders and works end to end.
