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.

Mixins


Components are great to achieve reusability, but what if different components in different domains share the same behavior?

We do not want duplicated code in our applications, and React gives us a tool that we can use when we want to share functionalities across various components: mixins.

Using mixins is no longer recommended, but it is worth understanding the problems they tried to solve and see what the possible alternative solutions are.

Also, it could happen that you might have to work on a legacy project that uses an older version of React, and it makes sense to know what mixins are and how to deal with them.

First of all, mixins work only with the createClass factory, so if you are using classes, you cannot use mixins, and that is one of the reasons why their usage is discouraged.

Suppose you are using createClass in your application and you find yourself needing to write the same code into different components.

For example, you need to listen to the window resize event to get the...
