Here are detailed React.

js notes to help you understand key concepts from


beginner to advanced:

1. Introduction to React

JavaScript library for building user interfaces, especially single-page


applications (SPA).

Developed and maintained by Facebook.

Uses JSX, a syntax extension that looks like HTML inside JavaScript.

Component-based architecture.

2. Setup

Use create-react-app for a quick start:

Npx create-react-app my-app

Cd my-app

Npm start
3. JSX (JavaScript XML)

JSX allows writing HTML in JavaScript.

Const element = <h1>Hello, World!</h1>;

Must return a single parent element.

Use className instead of class, and {} to embed expressions.

4. Components

Function Component

Function Welcome(props) {

Return <h1>Hello, {props.name}</h1>;

Class Component
Class Welcome extends React.Component {

Render() {

Return <h1>Hello, {this.props.name}</h1>;

Components can be reused and nested.

5. Props

Read-only data passed from parent to child.

<Welcome name=”Alice” />

6. State

Managed inside a component; used to handle dynamic data.

Using useState (Functional Components)


Import { useState } from ‘react’;

Const Counter = () => {

Const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

Return <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Clicked


{count}</button>;

7. Lifecycle Methods (Class) / Hooks (Function)

Class Lifecycle Methods

componentDidMount(), componentDidUpdate(), componentWillUnmount()

useEffect Hook

useEffect(() => {

console.log(‘Component mounted/updated’);

return () => {

console.log(‘Cleanup’);

};

}, []);
8. Events

<button onClick={handleClick}>Click me</button>

Functions can be passed as callbacks.

9. Conditional Rendering

{isLoggedIn ? <Dashboard /> : <Login />}

10. Lists and Keys

{items.map(item => <li key={item.id}>{item.name}</li>)}

11. Forms

<form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>

<input type=”text” value={name} onChange={e =>


setName(e.target.value)} />
</form>

12. Lifting State Up

Move state to the nearest common ancestor to share between components.

13. React Router

Npm install react-router-dom

Import { BrowserRouter, Route, Routes } from ‘react-router-dom’;

<BrowserRouter>

<Routes>

<Route path=”/” element={<Home />} />

<Route path=”/about” element={<About />} />

</Routes>

</BrowserRouter>

14. Context API


Used for state sharing across components without props.

Const ThemeContext = React.createContext();

<ThemeContext.Provider value=”dark”>

<Toolbar />

</ThemeContext.Provider>

Const value = useContext(ThemeContext);

15. Hooks Overview

useState() – state in function components

useEffect() – side effects

useContext() – context

useRef(), useMemo(), useCallback() – performance optimization

16. Styling
Inline: style={{ color: ‘red’ }}

CSS Modules

Styled-components

Tailwind CSS / Bootstrap

17. Code Splitting and Lazy Loading

Const LazyComp = React.lazy(() => import(‘./LazyComp’));

<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading…</div>}>

<LazyComp />

</Suspense>

18. State Management Libraries

Redux, Recoil, Zustand, MobX

Redux uses actions, reducers, store


19. Testing

Jest for unit testing

React Testing Library for component tests

Import { render, screen } from ‘@testing-library/react’;

20. Deployment

Use Netlify, Vercel, or host via GitHub Pages

Build: npm run build
