React Design Patterns and Best Practices

Overview of this book

React is an adaptable JavaScript library for building complex UIs from small, detached bits called components. This book is designed to take you through the most valuable design patterns in React, helping you learn how to apply design patterns and best practices in real-life situations. You’ll get started by understanding the internals of React, in addition to covering Babel 7 and Create React App 2.0, which will help you write clean and maintainable code. To build on your skills, you will focus on concepts such as class components, stateless components, and pure components. You'll learn about new React features, such as the context API and React Hooks that will enable you to build components, which will be reusable across your applications. The book will then provide insights into the techniques of styling React components and optimizing them to make applications faster and more responsive. In the concluding chapters, you’ll discover ways to write tests more effectively and learn how to contribute to React and its ecosystem. By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to tackle any developmental setbacks when working with React. You’ll be able to make your applications more flexible, efficient, and easy to maintain, thereby giving your workflow a boost when it comes to speed, without reducing quality.

Distributing your code

Contributing to the React ecosystem does not only mean pushing code into the React repository. To give back to the community and help developers, you can create packages, blog posts, answer questions on Stack Overflow, and perform many other activities.

Suppose, for example, you created a React component that solves a complex problem, and you think that other developers would benefit from using it instead of investing time in building their solutions. The best thing to do is to publish it GitHub and make it available for everyone to read and use. However, pushing the code to GitHub is only a small action within a big process, and it comes with some responsibilities. So, you should have a clear idea in mind about the reasons behind your choice.

The motivation behind why you want to share your code contributes to improving your skills as a developer. Sharing...
