Description

React is the most popular JavaScript library of the last five years, and the job market is still hotter than ever. Companies large and small can't hire engineers who understand React fast enough, and salaries for engineers are at an all-time high. It's a great time to learn to React! It's a great time to do a lot of React practice!

Despite the huge number of React courses for beginners, authors fail to say what to do next after the first step. They don’t explain how to create a real React application for customers.

In this course, we'll do React practice. We'll deliver a high-quality product with unit tests (UT) and Storybook stories for all major components. These practices are must-haves for developers.

Who's teaching you in this course?

I am a Senior Software Engineer with more than 8 years of production experience in Web Development, experienced in both frontend and backend technologies.

For the last 2+ years, I've been working with React. I’ve created a lot of different projects and have a huge experience. Practice is the most important in programming and I want to share it with you.

What's inside the course?

  • We'll create a simple React application with 3 different pages: Home page, Search page, and Not found page. React Router is the best choice!
  • It will be a copy of the Google homepage fetching data from Wikipedia using its API. For fetching data, we'll use Axios and for mocking this data in Storybook and UTs, we'll use Moxios.
  • React hooks are a must-have. Default hooks useState, useEffect, and others are used.
  • Custom React hooks will be created, explained, and covered with UTs.
  • Storybook is one of the best practices in development. We'll learn how to install and use it. We’ll create stories for the most important components.
  • Enzyme and Jest are used for unit testing. React hooks testing library is used for hooks.
  • According to the unit tests code convention, we'll get 80% of code coverage.

By the end of this course, you'll have learned how to deliver high-quality React applications, how to do it fast and following best practices.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
