The Joy of Composition

Why stateless rendering is pure bliss

React just got stateless components, meaning that they are in essence pure functions for rendering. Pure functions make it dead simple - even fun - to refactor your views

Immutable.js can have a bit of a steep learning curve, this is trying to show you how to do basic things and why you should care.

Breaking out of Redux paradigm to isolate apps

connect.js explained
// connect() is a function that injects Redux-related props into your component.
// You can inject data and callbacks that change that data by dispatching actions.
function connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps) {
// It lets us inject component as the last step so people can use it as a decorator.
// Generally you don't need to worry about it.
return function (WrappedComponent) {
// It returns a component
return class extends React.Component {
render() {

Performance and Conditionally Rendered Content in React

First, this is not about if in JSX. It's just the simplest example to talk about (and a lot of people tried to do it at first a long time ago).

Some react components conditionally render content. When React first went public, a lot of us coming from handlebars really wanted "if" syntax. This gist isn't just about If components though, it's about

Principles we use to write CSS for modern browsers

Recently CSS has got a lot of negativity. But I would like to defend it and show, that with good naming convention CSS works pretty well.

My 3 developers team has just developed React.js application with 7668 lines of CSS (and just 2 !important). During one year of development we had 0 issues with CSS. No refactoring typos, no style leaks, no performance problems, possibly, it is the most stable part of our application.

Here are main principles we use to write CSS for modern (IE11+) browsers:

Thanks everyone for participating in the quiz!
Many of you have posted correct answers.

What we know:

A top-level App component returns <Button /> from its render() method.

Question:

>What is the relationship between `` and this in that `Button`’s `render()`?

import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-dom'
import { Match, Link, BrowserRouter as Router } from 'react-router'
import matchSorter from 'match-sorter'
import './styles.css'
const API = 'http://localhost:3000'
const token = localStorage.booksToken || Math.random().toString()
localStorage.booksToken = token
