Learning React.js (2018)

- [Eve] Hi, I'm Eve Porcello, and welcome to Learning React. React is a JavaScript library that was created at Facebook to help developers and designers build user interfaces quickly. Together, we'll start by going over the basics of React, and from there, I'll guide you through the process of creating a sample full stack bulletin board application. We'll create our own React components, and I'll introduce you to core React concepts like properties and state. After that, we'll dig into some more important concepts in parent/child relationships, including refs and keys.

We'll also learn about the different stages of the component lifecycle and how to generate and serve a project with Create React app. Once we're done, you should have a full sense of how to get started with React. So let's dive right in and get to the content.
