Create a web based interactive Family tree application

I am creating a website with a direction for Geneology. I am to create a we based interactive Family tree maker and was wounder what tech would be best suited for this to learn. I was thinking about React as it is diffrent nodes that need to be filled with information, images etc and need to be be reused over and over again. Does anyone know if this is the way to go or if there is any other JS library or framework that would be better suited for the task. This will be for UI only as I understand the backend a bit better than the front end. Thank you for any input in what pile to start looking before I spend months learning something that will not help me in this task

React is an excellent framework that breaks each clump into components and unidirectionally controls information. React would, by the sound of it, work great! I'm currently doing the React track myself and everything I've learned so far seems to fit what you're looking for.
