Developing Applications using ReactJS Training in Hong Kong

This course is a complete guide to building and testing scalable web applications using ReactJS, the industry’s leading JavaScript library. Using already-known knowledge of web development via HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you will build powerful single-page applications using React’s key features and add-ons.

This course will provide an overview of the React library before launching into each of the building blocks of developing React applications. Learners will create a project with the use of function and class components, routing, props, forms, state management, and many other key React concepts used in both single-developer and enterprise-level React application development.

Delivery is through instructor-led explanations and short follow-up exercises that allow learners to experiment with code. Learners will be continuously building upon a practical project throughout their learning.

Learners must have skills in the following:

• At least 1 year of experience in a software/web app development role
• Advanced knowledge and practical experience of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

It is essential you understand the face of contemporary web development to attend this course. We insist upon learners having a good understanding of and experience of JavaScript plus good HTML and CSS skills (as covered in QAHTMLCSS).
