Overview of this book

React Hooks have changed the way React components are coded. They enable you to write components in a more intuitive way without using classes, which makes your code easier to read and maintain. Building on from the previous edition, this book is updated with React Hooks and the latest changes introduced in create-react-app and Spring Boot 2.1. This book starts with a brief introduction to Spring Boot. You’ll understand how to use dependency injection and work with the data access layer of Spring using Hibernate as the ORM tool. You’ll then learn how to build your own RESTful API endpoints for web applications. As you advance, the book introduces you to other Spring components, such as Spring Security to help you secure the backend. Moving on, you’ll explore React and its app development environment and components for building your frontend. Finally, you’ll create a Docker container for your application by implementing the best practices that underpin professional full stack web development. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with all the knowledge you need to build modern full stack applications with Spring Boot for the backend and React for the frontend.

Handling lists with React

For list handling, we introduce a new JavaScript method, map(), which is handy when you have to manipulate a list. The map() method creates a new array containing the results of calling a function to each element in the original array. In the following example, each array element is multiplied by two:

const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];

const resArr = arr.map(x => x * 2); // resArr = [2, 4, 6, 8]

The map() method also has the index second argument, which is useful when handling lists in React. The list items in React need a unique key that is used to detect rows that have been changed, added, or deleted.

The following example shows components that transform the array of integers to the array of list items and render these in the ul element. The component is now defined using the ES6 function:

import React from 'react';

const MyList = () => {
const...
