Recap

You have learned the basics on how to write your own React application! This lesson will provide you a recap to what you have learned so far and will also share how your App.js code looks by now.

Let’s recap the last chapter:

  • React
    • Use this.state and setState() to manage your local component state
    • Pass functions or class methods to your element handler
    • Use forms and events in React to add interactions
    • Unidirectional data flow is an important concept in React
    • Embrace controlled components
    • Compose components with children and reusable components
    • Usage and implementation of ES6 class components and functional stateless components
    • Approaches to style your components
  • ES6
    • Functions that are bound to a class are class methods
    • Destructuring of objects and arrays
    • Default parameters
  • General
    • Higher-order functions

Again, it makes sense to take a break, internalize the lessons, and apply them on your own. Experiment with the source code you have written so far. The source code for this project is found in the official repository.
