How to create a non-modal React dialog?

I'm working on a javascript React-based application running under nwjs.

My task is: on a button click, display scrollable instructions in a dialog that users can drag to a second monitor, so they can do their work in the main window, following the instructions in my new dialog.

I only know how to make modal dialogs with React. How do I make a non-modal dialog, so the user can scroll through the instructions as needed while they work in the main window?

Window you create trought react, must stay in browser window.

Call new child window so you get new window that can be dragged across desktop.

Window.open(url, [options], [callback])

See documentation
