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.

Next.js gives us a comprehensive set of features to create multi-page apps. Different routes are defined using folders and a special page.tsx file. Dynamic routes are defined using square brackets containing the route parameter. We created a static route for a blog post list and a dynamic route for each blog post.

A shared layout component is defined in layout.tsx in the relevant folder. We used the root layout to share a Header component.

The Link component is the recommended way of navigating in Next.js and can be used in RSCs as well as Client Components. We used this in the blog post list as well as the app header. The useRouter hook allows programmatic navigation in Client Components.

Route and search parameters can be accessed via params and searchParams props, respectively. They can also be accessed in Client Components via useParams and useSearchParams hooks. We used an id route parameter in the blog post dynamic route. We also used a criteria search parameter...
