Hands-On Labs
This course includes practical, hands-on laboratory exercises to reinforce your learning:
Lesson 1: Introduction to React & Modern Setup
This lesson provides a foundational introduction to React, a powerful JavaScript library for building dynamic user interfaces. You'll explore React's core philosophy, including its use of the virtual DOM and component-based architecture. The session also walks through setting up a modern development environment tailored for React 18, highlighting its latest features like concurrent rendering and improved performance. By the end, you’ll have a strong understanding of React’s building blocks and be ready to start creating responsive, maintainable UI components.
Lesson 2: Components, Props & JSX
In this lesson, you'll dive deeper into the core building blocks of React—components and props—while mastering the syntax that powers them: JSX. You'll learn how to write clean, expressive UI code using JSX and how to structure applications using functional components. The session covers passing data through props, validating them with PropTypes, and introduces basic TypeScript usage for improved type safety. You’ll also explore component composition and patterns for rendering UI conditionally, setting the stage for scalable and maintainable React applications.
Lesson 3: State Management with Hooks
This lesson introduces React’s powerful state management capabilities using hooks, with a focus on the useState
hook. You'll learn how to manage local component state, handle user input through forms, and build controlled components that respond to user actions. The lesson also covers essential concepts like event handling and the importance of state immutability when updating values. By the end, you'll be equipped to manage dynamic UI behavior in modern React applications confidently.
Lesson 4: Side Effects with useEffect
In this lesson, you'll explore how React handles side effects using the useEffect
hook. You'll learn how to synchronize components with external systems like APIs, timers, and event listeners, while managing component lifecycle events in a functional way. The lesson emphasizes best practices for optimizing effect performance with dependency arrays and ensuring proper cleanup to avoid memory leaks. You’ll also get a first look at custom hooks for reusable logic and how to handle errors during asynchronous operations.
Lesson 5: Lists, Keys & Dynamic Rendering
This lesson focuses on rendering dynamic content in React by working with lists of data. You’ll learn how to use JavaScript’s map()
function to generate UI elements and understand the critical role of keys in React’s reconciliation process. The session covers practical techniques for filtering, searching, and sorting data, along with strategies for optimizing performance when working with large datasets. By the end, you'll be equipped to build fast, responsive interfaces that scale with dynamic content.
Lesson 6: Advanced Hooks & State Patterns
This lesson dives into advanced React hooks and state management patterns that enable more scalable and maintainable applications. You’ll learn how to use useReducer
for managing complex state logic and useContext
to eliminate prop drilling across deeply nested components. The session also introduces the creation of custom hooks to encapsulate reusable logic, and explores performance optimizations with useMemo
and useCallback
. Additionally, you’ll get hands-on with useRef
for interacting with DOM elements and managing non-reactive values.
Lesson 7: Component Patterns & Advanced Concepts
This lesson explores advanced React patterns that promote reusability, flexibility, and performance. You’ll learn how to enhance components using higher-order components (HOCs) and the render props pattern, as well as how to build compound components for better inter-component communication. The session also covers robust error handling with error boundaries, and introduces performance optimization techniques like React.memo
, code splitting with React.lazy
, and other best practices for efficient rendering in large applications.
Lesson 8: Forms & Input Handling
In this lesson, you'll gain hands-on experience building complex and accessible forms in React. You'll explore advanced handling of controlled components, manage a variety of input types, and implement effective form validation techniques. The session introduces popular form libraries like Formik and React Hook Form to streamline state management and validation logic. Accessibility best practices and file upload handling are also covered, ensuring your forms are user-friendly and production-ready.
Lesson 9: React 18 Features & Modern Patterns
This lesson delves into the exciting new features introduced in React 18, highlighting how they enhance app performance and user experience. You’ll learn about concurrent rendering and its benefits, explore Suspense for seamless data fetching and lazy loading, and implement modern APIs like startTransition
to prioritize urgent updates. The session also covers automatic batching to reduce unnecessary renders and discusses best practices using Strict Mode and React’s latest development tools.
Lesson 10: Testing & Debugging
This lesson introduces essential tools and techniques for ensuring React applications are reliable and maintainable. You’ll learn how to write unit tests using React Testing Library, test both components and hooks, and handle async logic with mocks. The session also covers effective debugging with React Developer Tools, along with strategies for identifying performance bottlenecks and optimizing rendering behavior.
