I'm having trouble with understand how Reactjs connects to a Express Backend.

I'm aware of using CORS to communicate with the Express backend using fetch requests on the front end. But, is it possible to use React client side as the view engine ? or server the INDEX.html file in the React public folder as a static file ?
