Lab 06 - Basics of React

Tasks

1. Create and run basic app

1. Init a new react application. There is multiple ways how to work with react, but we will be using "CREATE REACT APP" toolchain. Read what it does here

   • Run command npx create-react-app my-app
   • This command will run for a while. (PRO tip: Windows - if you feel funky, you can pause your anti-virus which will speed up things. Linux/Mac users are fine)

2. Verify that the application is correctly installed by running the commands

   • cd my-app enter the correct folder
   • npm start which will start a local development server which does automatic rebuilds of your app when you change files

3. Edit App.js and observe the changes in your browser

2. Basic modifications

1. Edit a return on function app in app.js to say:

   • Remove the <header>, your return should look like this:

     return (
       <div className="App">
        //.. your new code
       </div>
     );
     

   • Hello wrapped in h1 element
   • From the React world! as h2 element
   • 

2. Move the h2 element with text From the React world! into variable. As per variable declaration

   • Use this variable inside your return function using {myVariable} on the place where h2 element was previously created.
   • The rendered output should stay the same!

3. Create a new component - MainContent

• Create new function which will be called MainContent - components should start with upper case. https://reactjs.org/docs/components-and-props.html
• This component(function) should return
  with text This is my body, with bold text
• Use the component in the return function of the app function. Components are used the same way as other elements - like this <MyComponent></MyComponent> or <MyComponent/> if we don't want to have any element childs.
• 

4. Create a new component with props

• Create a new function which will be called RenderNumber, this function will accept parameter props as described here https://reactjs.org/docs/components-and-props.html
• The property which it will accept will be called number
• The component should return the div with text: {number} is a great number!
• Add random number to the App function const randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
• Add component RenderNumber to the App and as a props pass the randomNumber https://reactjs.org/docs/components-and-props.html#rendering-a-component
• When you refresh the site - you should get always a different number
• 

5. Conditional rendering

• Modify the component RenderNumber in a way that it will render {number} is small number in case the number is smaller than 50, otherwise {number} is big number!
• Hint: You can sovle this by using 2x return in your function or inline operators. More here https://reactjs.org/docs/conditional-rendering.html
• 

6. Burger time

• Create new file called burger-time.js
• Create a new component in this file, called BurgerTime, this component will accept 2 props: name and count
• The component will return a list using ul and li elements https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_lists_unordered.asp
• Each element of this list will be text {name} is the best burger! the name shoudl be bold
• It's going to have as many elements in the list as the prop count
• Export the component from the file (the same way we did on the past labs)
• Import the component int he app.js and use it!
•
