Welcome to My Frontend Guide ( )
This guide will walk you through everything you need to know to build modern, scalable, and type-safe web applications using React, TypeScript, and Next.js.
📘 What You’ll Learn
You'll explore:
- ✅ Core React principles, history, and why it’s the UI library of choice.
- 🧱 How to build reusable components with JSX, props, state, and hooks.
- 🔄 The Virtual DOM and how React efficiently handles UI updates.
- ⚙️ Modern features like React Fiber, Concurrent Rendering, and Suspense.
- 🧠 TypeScript fundamentals and how it improves developer productivity.
- ✅ Typing React props, context, hooks, and reducers using TypeScript.
- 🧩 Combining React with TypeScript for scalable, bug-resistant code.
- 🚀 Building full-stack React apps with Next.js.
- 🧭 Mastering Next.js features: file-based routing, SSR, SSG, ISR, and Server Components.
- 🗃️ Using API routes, database integration, and deploying with Vercel.
- 🔁 Comparing React to other frameworks (Vue, Angular, Svelte).
React: The UI Library
React is a powerful JavaScript library for building user interfaces, focusing on component-based architecture and a declarative approach.
In this section, you’ll learn:
- What React is and how it differs from other frameworks.
- Creating components with JSX.
- Using state and props to manage dynamic data.
- The power of hooks:
useState
,useEffect
,useContext
, and more. - One-way data flow and how it simplifies app logic.
- The Virtual DOM and performance benefits.
TypeScript: Static Typing for JavaScript
TypeScript adds type safety to JavaScript, helping you catch errors early and refactor confidently.
You’ll learn:
- TypeScript syntax: types, interfaces, enums, and generics.
- Type checking functions, arrays, objects, and more.
- Writing reusable, type-safe utilities and components.
- Working with external libraries and
@types
. - Using
tsconfig.json
to customize your build settings. - Setting up React + TypeScript projects.
- Typing props, state, refs, and context.
- Strongly typing
useReducer
and custom hooks. - Handling form validation and API calls with TypeScript.
- Creating scalable patterns with reusable types.
Next.js: The React Framework
Next.js builds on React by adding routing, data fetching, API routes, and full-stack capabilities—all with great defaults and performance.
With Next.js, you’ll learn:
- App routing: pages vs App Router, dynamic and nested routes.
- Static Generation (SSG), Server-Side Rendering (SSR), and Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR).
- Server Components and client hydration in the new App directory.
- Creating API routes and integrating databases (e.g., Prisma).
- Authentication with NextAuth.js and using middleware.
- Optimizing and deploying to Vercel.
Whether you're just starting out or leveling up, this guide gives you a solid foundation for building high-performance front-end applications.
