Redux, Redux Toolkit, OSS and More with Mark Erikson - RRU 238
Returning guest Mark Erikson joins the React Round Up team to discuss how he found himself in the position of being an open source maintainer for Redux, how he's helped shepherd/author future versions of Redux (and the complete overhauls that happened when React Hooks were introcuded), and the new examples he's written for Redux Toolkit to make Redux easier for devs to get started with. Mark also addresses some commons misconceptions around React and Redux, such as: is React Context a perfect substitute for Redux (spoiler: it's not), and is Redux still relevant today (it is). Take a listen to hear about getting into open source, where Redux is headed and Mark's broader thoughts on helping the React community document and standardize all the options out there so developers have an easier time choosing the tools needed to solve their particular problems.SponsorsChuck's Resume TemplateRaygun - Application Monitoring For Web & Mobile AppsBecome a Top 1% Dev with a Top End Devs MembershipLinksCheng Lou - On the Spectrum of Abstraction at react-europe 2016Blogged Answers: Why React Context is Not a "State Management" Tool (and Why It Doesn't Replace Redux)Coding Career AdviceGitHub | markerikson/react-community-tools-practices-cheatsheetGitHub | markerikson/react-community-tools-practices-cheatsheet - Initial RFC: Scope and Goals #1Comparison with Other FrameworksRedux Style Guide#Redux Essentials, Part 1: Redux Overview and Concepts#Redux Fundamentals, Part 1: Redux Overview#Redux ToolkitRTK QueryJavaScript for Java-ish DevelopersMark's Dev BlogTwitter: Mark Erikson ( @acemarke )GitHub | Mark EriksonPicksCarl- Writing for Software Developers by Philip Kiely Mark- Josh ComeauPaige- Open source password manager - BitwardenTJ- Bowflex SelectTech DumbbellsZain- GitHub | zalmoxisus/redux-devtools-extensionAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
How Do I Introduce New Tech at Work? - RRU 237
Today the panel is discussing how to introduce new tech at work. They agree that it’s important to get input from all teams on the decision, although it will primarily affect the development team. One should also consider the different ways people make decisions, such as through discussion or quiet thinking, and give everyone time to come to a decision. The panel talks about positive and negative examples of how to introduce new tech at work. Thomas believes that it is important to acknowledge your own biases in decision making and to try to avoid them. The React experts discuss the significance of the team dynamic and the necessity of different roles in decision making or if it is better to have an organic discovery phase. This relates to Thomas’ point about personal biases, and he believes that it is important to put people in roles that are opposite of their personality. When making decisions about new technology, it is also important to note that not all decisions require the same amount of input, and they discuss how to measure how much input is required for a decision.SponsorsChuck's Resume TemplateDeveloper Book Club Become a Top 1% Dev with a Top End Devs MembershipLinksVue12 React Best Practices You Need to Follow in 2019SaulTest && commit || revertVS Code ESLintPicksThomas - Teachable MachineCharles - White ChristmasCharles - Holiday InnChris - Practical React HooksAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Navigating React Navigation with Zain Sajjad - RRU 236
Zain Sajjad is a frontend developer at his company Peekaboo Guru, an app built in React. The show begins with Zain explaining why he chose to build Peekaboo Guru in React. Ultimately, he chose React for its composability and reusability. He talks about how much data is shared between his React and React Native applications.Zain explains what he means by a container since he is not talking about Docker, and how he has the app organized. He talks about the differences between routing and navigation between React and React Native. When approaching these differences, he breaks things down into components, containers, and platform, paying careful attention to how they work together. This differentiation can actually help a lot with testing as well.

The State Machines in React with David Khourshid - RRU 234
David Khourshid is the author of a library called Xstate, He has been a developer for 7 years, currently works for Microsoft, his passion is frontendTalks a. In college, he actually studied piano performance, and so he talks about how he got into programming and where he started. The panel discusses his unique husky animation and how he came up with the idea for it and went about programming it.The panel discusses what a state is in React. David defines a state as a moment in time. States can change, when they do, that’s a state transition. They talk about the utility of states and thinking about your app as a state machine. They agree that describing your code as a state machine makes it easier to communicate and connect with non developers. The panel discusses the importance of learning from other industries, such as approaching programming the same way construction workers build a house. They debate the Waterfall versus the Agile mindset. They talk about the advantages of programming in React and focusing on the state machine, especially because it is important to be intentional about dealing with concepts separate from other concepts. They share different ways to switch to state machine thinking, one of which is to look at your event handlers and make sure they are doing anything besides dispatching events. David talks about his library called Xstate and the basics of his library and his inspiration, and who else is working in state machines. The finish by discussing industry standards.

React Best Practices - RRU 233
In this week’s episode of React Round Up the panel works their way through a blog post outlining best practices for React. The first is “keeping components small and function-specific”. The panel discusses the pros of using this best practice and how it relates to the single responsibility principle. This best practice also helps with the next, “reusability is important”.The panel considers this second best practice and points out some of its flaws. It recommends avoiding the creation of new components. The panel explains that by avoiding creating new components it saves time but can also cause problems as you adapt components to fit more projects.

Game Development in React & Typescript with Maksim Ivanov - RRU 232
Front-end developer Maksim Ivanov talks about working for Mojang, the company behind the ridiculously popular game Minecraft. As it turns out, Maksim uses React to build different pieces of the game, and runs the code through a custom renderer to make it work in the game world. In addition to his day job, he also found time to write a book about TypeScript after realizing how much easier getting familiar with new code bases could be if TypeScript was used instead of JavaScript. The panel has used TypeScript to varying degrees themselves, but nobody's gone all in, and they talk about the pros and cons of it, including the initial learning curve and how it can help prevent bugs in the code. Maksim's book covers many aspects of TypeScript in great detail, and it sounds like a good read for anyone just picking up the language.SponsorsChuck's Resume Template Raygun - Application Monitoring For Web & Mobile AppsBecome a Top 1% Dev with a Top End Devs MembershipLinksCustom Rendererreact-game-engine - npmreact-unity-webgl - npmgettextnewline@tjfuller • InstagramReact Hook FormCheatsheets for experienced React developers getting started with TypeScriptThe RSpec BookTypeStrongPicksMaksim - Follow Maksim on YoutubeMaksim -Harry Potter and the Methods of RationalityCharles - Iron druid chroniclesCharles - Percy JacksonPaige - The Name of the WindTJ - OmniDiskSweeper, OmniWeb, and OmniPresence - The Omni GroupTJ - https://rtmccormick.com/2018/01/10/clear-node-modules-folders-recursively-mac-linux/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
