WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR
This course is aimed at anyone who's already confident (or confident-ish) with basic Javascript and wants to level up by taking a dive into building more feature-complete and immersive web apps in React.
React is becoming increasingly popular amongst designers as it takes a component-based approach aimed at re-using interface patterns and code. This makes prototyping and building real-world apps very quick without having to worry about technical nitty gritty.
This is a great next step for students who have already completed our Javascript for Designers and Advanced CSS + Javascript courses.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
Visual Studio Code is our code editor of choice! It's a powerful editor that comes with several built-in features and a robust marketplace for downloadable extensions. You'll also need a computer (Windows, Mac or Linux) with the latest version of Chrome installed and a broadband internet connection.
