What's this course about?

There are a huge number of React courses for beginners where authors describe the first steps. They are great for beginners. But, what to do next? How to create a real React application for customers? 

In this course, we'll do React practice. We'll deliver a high-quality product with unit tests (UT) and storybook stories for all major components. These practices are "must-haves" for developers.

For the last 2+ years, I've been working with React. Created a lot of different projects and have had a huge experience. The practice is the most important in programming, and I want to share it with you.

What's inside the course?

• We'll create a simple React application with 3 different pages: Home page, Search page, and Not found page. React Router is the best choice!

• It will be a copy of the Google Home page, fetching data from Wikipedia using its API. For fetching data, we'll use Axios, and for mocking this data in Storybook and UTs, we'll use Moxios.

• React hooks are a must-have. Default hooks useState, useEffect, and others are used. 

• Custom React hooks will be created, explained, and covered with UTs.

• A storybook is one of the best practices in development. We'll learn how to install and use it. Will create stories for the most important components.

• Enzymes and Jest are used for unit testing. The React hooks testing library is used for hooks.

• According to the unit test code convention, we'll get 80% of code coverage.

By the end of this course, you'll have learned how to deliver a high-quality React application. How to do it fast and follow best practices.
