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.

Being declarative means that you just describe what you want to be displayed on the screen at any given point in time and React takes care of the communications with the browser. This feature makes React very easy to reason about and it is very powerful at the same time.

However, there might be some cases where you need to access the underlying DOM nodes to perform some imperative operations. It should be avoided because, in most cases, there is a more React-compliant solution to achieve the same result, but it is important to know that we have the possibility to do it and to know how it works so that we can make the right decision.

Suppose we want to create a simple form with an input element and a button, and we want it to behave in such a way that when the button is clicked, the input field gets focused.

What we want to do basically is to call the focus method on the input node, the actual DOM instance of the input,...
