• Virtual DOM: React's internal representation of the UI for


optimized updates.
• Component-Based: Build UIs from small, isolated, reusable
pieces.
Core Concepts of React
JSX Components
Syntax extension that lets you write HTML-like Reusable, independent UI building blocks that
code within JavaScript. compose complex UIs.

Props State
Properties passed from parent to child Data managed within a component that can
components, enabling data flow. change over time and trigger UI re-renders.
React vs. Traditional JavaScript
Understanding the paradigm shift from traditional JavaScript to React is crucial for appreciating React's benefits.

Feature Vanilla JavaScript React.js

DOM Manipulation Manual DOM manipulation Virtual DOM for optimized updates

Programming Style Procedural, imperative Declarative, component-based

Code Reusability Less inherent reuse High component reuse


React Hooks: useState & useEffect
Hooks are functions that let you "hook into" React state and lifecycle features from function components.

useState()
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);useEffect(() =>
{ console.log(count);}, [count]);
Manages state within functional components.
It returns the current state and a function to update it.

This snippet demonstrates a simple counter


useEffect() where useEffect logs the count whenever it changes.
Handles side effects (data fetching, subscriptions,
manual DOM manipulations) in functional
components. It runs after every render.
Real-World Applications of React
React powers some of the most widely used platforms in the world, a testament to its robustness and versatility.

Many mobile applications are also built with React Native, extending React's power to native platforms.
Summary of Key Takeaways
1 Efficiency & Modularity 2 Reusable Components
React offers a fast, modular approach to UI Its component-based architecture encourages
development, boosting performance and reusable code, accelerating development and
maintainability. ensuring consistency.
