Built with

• ReactJS
• Typescript
• CSS Module
• React Testing Library (RTL)

What I learned

• useState hook

  • Allows us to add state to a function component

• CSS module

  • Classnames and animation names are locally scoped
  • Different components can be using the same class name but have different css properties
  • It is recommended to use camelCase to avoid facing unexpected behavior example when trying to access a kebab-case classname in JS

• React Testing Library

  • Allows us to import and render the component for testing
  • Important to test what user sees/interacts with on the website instead of the logic behind the components

• Typescript

  • Reduce bugs by doing static type checks when passing arguments into methods
