Overview of this book
This course offers a practical introduction to React, helping you develop the skills needed to create interactive, maintainable, and scalable applications. Through hands-on examples and real-world workflows, you will learn how professional React projects are organized and developed.
You will start by setting up your development environment and exploring React's component-based architecture. As you progress, you will work with JSX, props, state management, event handling, and essential hooks such as useState and useEffect. A practical anime search application serves as the course project, giving you experience with API integration, user input handling, asynchronous data, loading indicators, favorites management, and error handling.
The course also explores modern styling approaches, including CSS Modules, CSS-in-JS, and Styled Components, alongside component design principles and Material UI. In the final sections, you will examine React internals and performance optimization techniques, including rendering behavior, the Virtual DOM, state batching, memoization, React DevTools, profiling, Lighthouse, and the React Compiler. By the end of the course, you will be equipped to create modern React applications using industry-standard tools, efficient development practices, and performance-focused techniques.
