"ROADMAP OF

REACTJS"
@vaibhavsaini

Lesson 1: Introduction to React.js

What is React.js?

React.js is an open-source JavaScript library maintained by Facebook for

building user interfaces or UI components.

Key Concepts:

1. Components: React organizes UI into reusable components. Each component

represents a part of the UI, such as buttons, forms, or entire sections
of a webpage.
2. Virtual DOM: React uses a Virtual DOM to efficiently update and render
changes to the actual DOM, reducing performance bottlenecks.

Lesson 2: Setting Up React

Prerequisites:

Basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript."If you don't have any
knowledge about this I recommend https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/html/?

Installation:

1. Node.js: Install Node.js, which includes npm (Node Package Manager),

from the official website.
2. Create React App: Use npx create-react-app my-app to create a new React
application.

Running the App:

d
1. cd my-app
2. npm start to run the development server.

Lesson 3: Understanding Components

Creating a Component:

In the src folder, create a new JavaScript file, e.g., MyComponent.js.

Import React and create a component using the function or class syntax.

Rendering a Component:

Use the ReactDOM.render() function to render your component in the

public/index.html file.

Lesson 4: Props and State

Props (Properties):

Props are used for passing data from parent to child components.
They are immutable (read-only) within the child component.

State:

State represents the internal data of a component that can change over
time.
Use useState hook or the this.state object in class components to
manage state.

Lesson 5: Handling Events

Event Handling:

Use event handlers like onClick to capture user interactions.

accordingly.

Lesson 6: Conditional Rendering

Conditional Rendering:

Use if statements or ternary operators to conditionally render

components or elements based on state or props.

Lesson 7: Lists and Keys

Use .map() to iterate over an array and render a list of items.

Keys:
 Assign a unique key to each item in the list to help React efficiently
update the DOM.
