Fundamentals of React.js (3cr)

Objective

This beginner-friendly course introduces you to React.js, a powerful JavaScript library for building modern, dynamic web applications.

If you’re new to these technologies, some assignments may be challenging. The course begins with JavaScript Foundations, a crucial skill set for working with React. If the early assignments feel too difficult, we recommend strengthening your JavaScript fundamentals before continuing.

Throughout the course, you’ll learn how to:
- Build dynamic user interfaces using React components
- Manage data with state and props
- Handle user input through forms
- Navigate pages with React Router
- Use essential React Hooks (e.g., useState, useEffect) to create interactive and efficient apps

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to build a complete single-page application (SPA) using React and apply industry best practices.
