Every platform renderer, be it dom, react native, etc has to have its own configuration called hostConfig along with the react-reconciler.

The react-reconciler module inside the renderer will call the platform specific functions via the supplied hostConfig to perform dom changes or view updates.

Here is a workable implementation of custom renderer.
