Filled with useful React patterns that you can use in your projects straight away, this book will help you save time and build better web applications with ease. React 17 Design Patterns and Best Practices is a hands-on guide for those who want to take their coding skills to a new level. You’ll spend most of your time working your way through the principles of writing maintainable and clean code, but you’ll also gain a deeper insight into the inner workings of React. As you progress through the chapters, you’ll learn how to build components that are reusable across the application, how to structure applications, and create forms that actually work. Then you’ll build on your knowledge by exploring how to style React components and optimize them to make applications faster and more responsive. Once you’ve mastered the rest, you’ll learn how to write tests effectively and how to contribute to React and its ecosystem. By the end of this book, you'll be able to avoid the process of trial and error and developmental headaches.

Importing the CSS files into our components makes the dependencies clear, and scoping the class names locally avoids clashes. We looked at how CSS module's composes is a great feature, and how we can use it in conjunction with Atomic CSS to create a framework for quick prototyping.
