Tic Tac Toe: A Playful Intro to React

via Skillshare

Overview

Do you want to learn React the fun way? In this class, you will learn the key concepts of React while building a Tic Tac Toe game. 

While building a fully functioning game we dive into some basic concepts in React like:

  • How to break down your application or game into smaller pieces, into components
  • How to structure your logic and how to connect these components with props and callbacks
  • How to deal with change, what is the state, what to store in it and where to define it
  • How to add interaction and how does re-rendering work in React
  • And while it has nothing to do with React we are also going to draw some basic images by coding SVGs

This is an intro course, no prior React knowledge is required, but some HTML, CSS and basic Javascript skills are necessary.
