Learn React with TypeScript

Learn React with TypeScript

By: Carl Rippon

Overview of this book

Reading, navigating, and debugging a large frontend codebase can feel overwhelming for web developers, but you can overcome this with expert guidance from a seasoned software professional with over 20 years’ experience in developing a complex line of business applications. This book will help you learn React, TypeScript, and Next.js—the core technology stack behind scalable, high-performance web applications used by top companies. This third edition of Learn React with TypeScript is updated with the latest features of React 19, including server components, server actions, and powerful new hooks. The chapters show you how to use TypeScript’s advanced features for enhanced code reliability and maintainability when building robust, type-safe components. You’ll explore efficient data fetching strategies with RSCs in Next.js, as well as in single-page applications (SPAs). The book also covers modern state management with Zustand, best practices for form handling, and strategies for building well-structured, reusable components that streamline development. Finally, you’ll focus on unit testing with Vitest, ensuring your React components are resilient and error-free. By the end of this book, you'll have at your disposal the skills and best practices needed to create maintainable and performant React applications with TypeScript and Next.js.

Creating the project

In this short section, we will create the project for the app we will build and its folder structure. The folder structure will be straightforward because it contains a single page with the checklist component we will build.

We will develop the app using Visual Studio Code as in previous chapters, so open Visual Studio Code and carry out the following steps:

  1. Create the project using Vite. See Chapter 2, Getting Started with TypeScript, if you can’t remember the steps for this.
  2. Copy styles from the GitHub repository at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Learn-React-with-TypeScript-Third-Edition/blob/main/Chapter11/start/src/index.css file, overwriting the existing contents.

That completes the project setup. Next, we will learn about a pattern that enables a reusable component to accept different types of data in a strongly typed manner.
