React Concepts Cleared – Ready to Build (Day 7)

 React Basics – Done !

Today I dedicated my time to following a React tutorial and revising all the foundational React concepts. It felt great to walk through everything step by step with practical implementation.

      What I Covered:

  • ✅ React setup and course introduction

  • ✅ Created a basic JavaScript project in React

  • ✅ Understood functional components and how to structure them

  • ✅ Practiced passing data using props

  • ✅ Applied inline and external styling techniques

  • ✅ Worked with state using useState hook

  • ✅ Implemented useEffect hook for side effects and data loading

    What I Learned:

    • React is all about components — building UI in pieces that work independently

    • useState helps manage changing values dynamically inside components

    • useEffect runs side effects like data fetching, and needs to be carefully handled to avoid re-renders

    • Props help pass data from parent to child — a core concept in React

    • Styling in React can be done in multiple ways and needs structure for scalability

    Gracias:

    Grateful for the structured approach and the pace of learning.

    Excited to start the course project tomorrow and bring all of this into practice!
