Pragmatically applying Functional React.js
React.js is one of the hot topics in our industry. It challenges the status quo introducing new ways of thinking about and building dynamic web applications. In this workshop we'll explore the pragmatic application of React.js and especially how to use it with a functional approach minimizing mutable state and side effects.
In this workshop we'll discuss:
- React.js - primarily functional use
- Modularization
- Composition
- Immutable.js
- Redux
- RxJS
- Performance considerations
- Trade-offs
This interactive workshop is ideal for intermediate javascript developers who want to grow in their knowledge and understanding of React.js and functional techniques for writing solid, performant, and maintainable code.
