Notes
- React is typically compiled to turn the JSX components into function calls
- It is possible to use React without compiling by calling the functions directly
- Webpack bundles files together to speed up page load times
- Also lets you import CSS (or images or whatever) in the same way you would import JS
- Webpack is typically used in conjunction with compiling React
- HTTP/2.0 doesn't replace bundling
- BEM is a systematic way of naming CSS classes
- Done automagically by Webpack (and consequently by React, when compiled)
- CSS uses specificity to decide between multiple styles that have been applied to an element
- CSS uses ORDER OF DEFINITION (precedence) to decide between multiple styles WITH EXACTLY THE SAME SPECIFICITY
Electron
TypeScript
- Docs
Other
- Svelte is a competitor to React
- Uses its own language that observes values directly instead of using hooks like useState
