Day 1 of 100 - 2023

Finally 🫑, Starting to learn the most hyped and talked about javascript library 🫧☁ REACT πŸŽ‡. To say a bit about myself, I'm a Frontend developer (The second most used JS framework - Angular). First time I will be posting my learning journey on the internet (because I rarely learn anything seriously !!!πŸ˜‚) , SOOOOO Let's start learning react ➑️

Day 1:

Assuming you are completely new to web development (ofcourse you need to be knowing HTML, CSS, JS basics).

Done setting up react on local, basically involves installing NPM (Node Package Manager). So if you are wondering how can you install that, You first need to install node from 'https://nodejs.org/en/'.

Next, Install VS code, a text editor where we write react code. link: 'https://code.visualstudio.com/'

After doing all this if you are still excited:

create a folder in VScode, call it whatever you need.
Open terminal -> Navigate to the folder you just created -> run command "npx create-react-app " (replace with the name you want to give to your react project, I am too lazy so will usually give just 'app').

next, navigate within your project folder and run the command "npm run start".

Once done, Open browser and type "http://localhost:3000/" and your react app with default configurations starts running.

Congratulations you are a React developer nowπŸŽ‰πŸ˜….

So, that's it for DAY1 , let's see if I post Day2 of 100 - 2023.

CheersπŸŽ‰
