This course is fully up-to-date with the latest version of React (16.8) and includes Redux and Routing feature.

What's this course about?

Learn React and Redux by coding examples. Learn all aspects of the most popular JavaScript framework today using simple but very powerful examples. For a long time, JavaScript has been the key element of the world wide web. Historically, it's been used for front end validations, dynamic menus, making some AJAX requests, etc.

But things have changed since the introduction of Single Page Applications (SPAs). The first major such framework was Angularjs (1.x) from google, which eventually made way to the new angular 2, which now is called just angular. Angular is a very complete framework addressing each and every issue that an application needs.

Developers at Facebook released a completely different kind of a framework called React (or ReactJS), which uses a combination of plain JavaScript and HTML elements (in XML syntax), called JSX. Unlike the Angular framework, this one simply addresses the View part of MVC. The main goal of a React application is to breakdown the entire web application into a bunch of HTML-like elements called components. A component defines the visual appearance of your UI while converting the data it holds into user interface elements. Using these components, you can quickly develop amazing and powerful web apps. These components are completely reusable.

This course will start from ground zero and explain what exactly React is and how you may use it (and for which kind of apps). Thereafter, we'll go all the way from basic to advanced. We'll not just scratch the surface but dive deeply into React as well as popular libraries like React Router and Redux. By the end of the course, you can build amazing React (single page) applications.

Who's teaching you in this course?

My name is Vinod Kumar Kayartaya, I'm a freelance web developer, consultant, and a full-time professional software trainer.

Since I have enormous experience in the I.T. teaching industry, I know exactly what a student is looking for when learning new technology. This way, I would have answered your question, even before you ask them. For all of my courses, I start with the very basic installation of software and tools and get you started with coding.

No advanced JavaScript knowledge is required, though you'll be able to move even quicker through the course if you know next-gen JavaScript features like ES6 Arrow functions. Whatever the necessary ES 6/7/8 features that we will be using in React applications, are covered before that.
