The reader will learn how to use React and its component-based architecture in order to develop modern user interfaces. A new holistic way of thinking about UI development will establish throughout this book and the reader will discover the power of React components with many examples.

The book will take the reader through a journey to discover the benefits of component-based user interfaces over the classical MVC architecture. Throughout the book, the reader will develop a wide range of components and then bring them together to build a component-based UI. By the end of this book, readers would have learned several techniques to build powerful components and how the component-based development is beneficial over regular web development.

Summary


In this chapter, you learned how to render components on the server. We created a simple HTTP server and then upgraded it to allow multiple endpoints and web sockets. Finally, we looked briefly at how we can structure our server-side code and quickly looked at the AdonisJS MVC framework.

In the next chapter, you will learn about some popular React design patterns that you can apply to your components and interfaces.
