Learning React is a code repository containing sample files that accompany the O'Reilly book Learning React by Alex Banks and Eve Porcello.
The repository serves as a practical companion to the book, providing working code examples that demonstrate the concepts and patterns discussed in the text. The book covers building efficient React applications with modern practices, including a comprehensive exploration of React Hooks, foundational JavaScript concepts, testing, and state management. Developers can reference and run these samples while reading to understand how the patterns work in practice.
This repository is suited for anyone working through the Learning React book who wants to see concrete implementations of the concepts being taught. It works best as a learning resource rather than a starting point for production applications, since it is organized around educational progression through the book's chapters. The repository includes examples covering functional JavaScript, Jest testing, React fundamentals, and Redux state management.
The project maintains separate branches for different editions of the book, allowing readers of either version to access the appropriate code samples for their edition. The repository serves as a stable reference implementation that stays synchronized with the published book content.
