Leverage the benefits of both client-side and server-side rendering to get the most out of your React applications. By the end of this book you will be able to build and deploy React applications using the Next.js framework to fully render server-side HTML on every Web page. You'll begin by reviewing JavaScript fundamentals and how they work with the core principles of React. You'll then move on to Next.js, the React framework for server-rendered applications. Using this framework, you will create a fast and secure solutional React application that renders content on the server-side, protects sensitive information, and optimizes response times. Before deploying the application using Docker containers, you'll create automated unit tests to verify that every component is appropriately doing its job Building React Apps with Server-Side Rendering also covers other fun and interesting topics such as Bootstrap 4, JSX (JavaScript XML), adding styling to your React applications, and much more. By the end of this book, you will be able to build and deploy React applications that fully render server-side HTML on every page. In the end you'll have a client-side rendered React application that integrates server-side rendering into it using Next.js framework. What You'll Learn Examine fundamental concepts of JavaScript (ES 2015)Create client-side apps using JavaScript frameworks React and ReduxAdd server-side rendering to React apps using the NextJS Framework Who This Book Is For Web developers who have prior experience in working with JavaScript, HTML and CSS, who wish to step up a level and create better web applications using modern JavaScript frameworks like React, Reduct & Next.

Level up your React and Next.js skills with advanced concepts about SSR and PWA Ê DESCRIPTIONÊ The book starts by introducing the reader to React, what it is and why you need a library like React to work with medium to large scale applications. We then move on to implementing simple client-side programs with React, uncovering modern React practices like React hooks and diving deep into various kinds of hooks. We then move to implement React on the server using Server-Side Rendering to bring benefits of the SEO world to the dynamic rendering nature of front-end libraries. For this, we use Next.js, a very popular implementation of Server-Side Rendering which comes with tons of good practices already baked in. We also take a look at how Progressive Web Apps can be created out of existing React codebases and what benefits it provides us. Finally, we end the book with some React internals (how to React works) and some bleeding-edge features in React which are expected to roll out in 2-3 years fully and would impact how to React works under the hood. KEY FEATURESÊ - Covers latest and core React concepts including React hooks and React reconciler - Covers about Server Side Rendering with React and how to use it using Next.js - Covers about Progressive Web Apps in React and how to create them - Covers intermediate and advanced React concepts like state management - Covers overview of React for beginners to catch with advanced concepts later - Covers bleeding-edge React concepts on the future of React and how it would work eventually Ê WHAT WILL YOU LEARNÊ _ÊWhat React is and how to get started with it _ÊModern ways to code React applications _ÊImplementing Server-Side rendering with/without Next.js on the top of React library _ÊWorking with Progressive Web Apps in React _ÊHow React works under the hood _ÊFuture of React and bleeding-edge React tech you can use today Ê WHO THIS BOOK IS FORÊÊ The reader is expected to have a decent understanding of JavaScript/HTML/CSS, and possibly, worked with React a little bit beforehand. Although the first 2 chapters cover basics of React, still it is recommended for users with at least a bit of knowledge and experience with React. Ê TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. React 101 2.
