About the workshop

Update: The workshop will now take place online on Monday, March 30 starting at 9:00am Pacific time.

React is a JavaScript UI library that makes creating reusable components easy and efficient. In this workshop, we’ll cover the critical concepts of modern React while iteratively building an app using hooks. We’ll learn how to:

• Write readable, reusable and composable components
• Use JSX syntax
• Work with the Virtual DOM
• Handle user interactions and synthetic events
• Maintain application state
• Make API calls
• Apply component styling
• Handle HTML forms & form elements
• And more…

Prior experience with React is not necessary, but experience with building JavaScript applications will be helpful to hit the ground running. You’ll leave the workshop with all the fundamentals you need to build your own modern apps with React using hooks.

Prerequisites:

• Working Knowledge of JavaScript
• Familiarity with ES6+
