Let's get together and build a component in React each week. We can then check out each other's solutions to the challenge and hopefully get better at this development thing. While my goal is to get better at React, other libraries are also welcome. There is so much out there we can learn from.
This is not meant to be a tutorial. There are TONS of those for react already on the web. We are going to start with very simple components and work into more complex scenarios.
Some good resources:
I have also provided a very simple JSBin starting template.
We are still working out how we will showcase our solutions to make collaboration and viewing easier. For the time being, feel free to post links to you JSBins in the comments of this Gist
Hey guys, @petebrowne shared this with us at LocalMed. My comments would be better shared here, and I'll do my best to contribute as things progress.
My first thought is who are these challenges for? If it's for experienced devs, right on. If it's for newer devs the pace might be too quick. For example consider the gap in what is covered here http://reactfordesigners.com/labs/reactjs-introduction-for-people-who-know-just-enough-jquery-to-get-by/ compared to week 1 to week 2 on this project.
Either way, great concept and like I said, I'll look to contribute when I can. But I'll certainly be following you guys' ideas.
