One of the best ways I know of to learn a new technology, and/or continue learning as it evolves, is putting it into practice.
In this case the main technologies were React and Redux and the project I chose was a word search game.
The result is before you :)
Word Search React Game
You can obviously jump right in and play (it can, at times, even be a challenging game), but if you find yourself asking "how was this implemented" do not hesitate to reach out and contact me here on the comment below or on Twitter @mattibarzeev.
If the topic requires I might write an elaborated answer as a post here.
As mentioned this is work-in-progress and probably will always be by nature. Any suggestions you have or bugs you might find (and you will) will be received happily.
Feel free to spread it around to whomever you think might enjoy and benefit from it :)
Cheers!

There is no code.
Sorry, the project is not open-sourced.
can you please let us know how did you added the character selection behaviour??
please share source code
I'm sorry, the project is not open-sourced, but if you want to ask specific stuff about the chars selection I can try and answer. Where did you reach a block there?
I just want to know what external library did you used for draw and character selection behaviour???
I did not use any 3rd party for that :)
I did it myself using React and CSS and JS. There is a state holding the selected chars, and React render these chars on the screen followong the mouse using CSS and JS, but I'm sure that this can be done with some animation 3rd party, it all depends on how willing are you to learn how these sort of things work.
