Preface
Welcome to the React Mega-Tutorial! In this book I will share my experience in developing real-world, non-trivial front end applications using the React library and a handful of related packages.
Unlike most other books and tutorials, the React Mega-Tutorial will take you on a development journey. Instead of teaching you React concepts with isolated examples, it will show you how to develop a complete front end application. You will begin by creating a brand-new React project, and then start adding features and functionality to it as you progress through the chapters. When you reach the end, you will have a complete project of which you will understand every single line of code. More importantly, you will understand the concepts and techniques involved in creating it, in a way that will be directly applicable to your own projects.
