Overview of this book

Taking a complete journey through the most valuable design patterns in React, this book demonstrates how to apply design patterns and best practices in real-life situations, whether that’s for new or already existing projects. It will help you to make your applications more flexible, perform better, and easier to maintain – giving your workflow a huge boost when it comes to speed without reducing quality. We’ll begin by understanding the internals of React before gradually moving on to writing clean and maintainable code. We’ll build components that are reusable across the application, structure applications, and create forms that actually work. Then we’ll style React components and optimize them to make applications faster and more responsive. Finally, we’ll write tests effectively and you’ll learn how to contribute to React and its ecosystem. By the end of the book, you’ll be saved from a lot of trial and error and developmental headaches, and you will be on the road to becoming a React expert.

The basics of functional programming

Apart from following the best practices when we write JSX and use a linter to enforce consistency and find errors earlier, there is one more thing we can do to clean up our code: follow a Functional Programming (FP) style.

As discussed in Chapter 1, Everything You Should Know About React, React has a declarative programming approach that makes our code more readable.

Functional Programming  is a declarative paradigm, where side-effects are avoided and data is considered immutable to make the code easier to maintain and to reason about.

Don't consider the following section an exhaustive guide to functional programming; it is only an introduction to get started with some concepts that are commonly used in React and of which you should be aware.

First-class objects

In JavaScript, functions are first-class objects, which means that they can be assigned to variables and passed as parameters to other functions.

This allows us to introduce the concept...
