Learning React

27 Mar 2020

Introduction

With more time on my hands due to the COVID-19 outbreak, I took the opportunity to learn more about programming. One of the first things I learned about was React. I followed a simple YouTube tutorial that guided me through setting up and using React.

Skills

This was my first project that used React and I learned a lot about how it works. Making the simple counters using React was very different compared to JavaScript, which I have done in the past. While it was definitely more complicated to due this simple task, the applications for it are numerous.

Git Project

The repository for the project is located here. I didn’t create it as a repository and uploaded it afterwards so there isn’t a history to the project.

Moving Forward

This is the end of this project as I don’t plan to do too much else with it. It was a fun first delve into React and a refresher about HTML, CSS, and web design. While I may not be using React for a while, it was definitely a great experience.
