Hi all! After building a few websites with React, I came across a few components that are pretty useful and will help make your next application better and more visually appealing! In this article I will be explaining how to install them and how to implement in your projects.
Hello again! In this article I will be introducing and clearing up some ambiguity of React Hooks. In React you can define components in two ways, Functional Components and Class Components. If you are familiar with Object Oriented Programming, Class components look very similar and seem like the way to go when creating components. Through my time coding in React, I would usually opt in to creating Class Components and only use Functional Components when I’m creating presentational components or “dumb” components. Class Components came with benefits such as state and the use of Lifecycle methods. But with the introduction of React v16.8.0 React hooks became a thing. In a nutshell React hooks allow functional components to hold state and make use of lifecycle methods, such as componentDidMount, componentWillMount, render, etc.. With React hooks Functional Components weren’t considered “dumb” anymore. In this article I will briefly introduce two hooks that can be used in functional components to utilize state and to utilize lifecycle methods.
In this blog post I will go over how to use the Fetch API. Let’s start off by giving an overview of what the Fetch API does.
Welcome back! I am guessing that you’ve enjoyed my walk through this far and want to finish up. Well, in this blog we will be developing how to add a Todo to the list that we just created.
Hello and welcome back!
