How to install React Js with CodeIgniter..?
CodeIgniter with React
CodeIgniter code is little bit changed to accommodate theming structure. Also there are significant changes done and some are in progress, to support rendering using React JS.
The changes are done in such a way, which put this repository in the state, in which it can be used in multiple ways, the default being rendering the views using React and it supports the default CodeIgniter views also.

Another example which I tried two years ago I think : https://github.com/Jineshfrancisco/React_Vue_Frontend_Scaffolding
download the repository from github
extract into your codeigniter project folder
link css and js files in public folder into your view file
edit the package.json file and other (watch the Video)
run the command "npm run watch" or "npm run prod"

Codeigniter + Reactjs – Integration
See this tutorial is well for step by step https://www.tutofox.com/react/codeigniter-reactjs-integracion/
I am using React+ CodeIgniter for a small personal project I am working on currently. React is wonderful for creating dynamic, interactive front-ends. PHP developers are available in plenty to develop the REST backend, with the added advantage of very cheap, shared hosting. Some simple "formsy" admin pages are also done in CodeIgniter, making my bundle size smaller and maybe some added security.
You need to first build the create-react-app project using
npm run build
When it finishes, you will find the 'index.html' and other required files inside the "project_folder/build" folder. Copy everything into the Apache htdocs folder. I put the codeigniter files into "htdocs/api" folder. You will need to do some redirects with '.htaccess'.
