Want to know how thousands of coders are writing cleaner, more flexible Javascript? Learn how to use Facebook’s open-source Javascript library, React.js, to create user interface components and make your code quicker and easier to work with.
On this course, we’ll take a practical approach to building front-end web applications, and you’ll learn how to work more efficiently by creating modular layouts that can be quickly moved around and re-arranged.
This is a great next step for students who have already completed our Javascript for Designers and Advanced CSS + Javascript courses.
Anyone who is already confident (or confident-ish) with basic Javascript and wants to level up by taking a dive into building more feature-complete and immersive web apps in React.
React is becoming increasingly popular amongst designers as it takes a component based approach aimed at re-using interface patterns and code. This makes prototyping and building real-world apps very quick without having to worry about technical nitty gritty.
Most of our students work in the creative industries – designers, strategists and copywriters are the most common jobs amongst our students – but you can work in any industry to join the course.
A computer with Mac OS X 10.9 or above, Windows XP or above, or a recent Linux version installed and a broadband internet connection. That’s it!
Learn why React has taken the web industry by storm and why is it so awesome

Lost in Tokyo is a showcase of the hippest and trendiest spots in Tokyo. We’ll be learning about React and what problems it solves, how to think about our page as components, using CSS toolkits and working with data and events in React.
For our second project in this course, we’ll be building Jiffy: an app that uses the Giphy API. We’ll look at how to build our apps using create-react-app, learning about APIs and how to fetch data from them using Ajax, as well as running events inside our components.
In the final project, we'll be building a website to help you visually discover new places around the world using interactive maps, data storage and geolocation.
Our instructors have decades of professional experience, have spoken at international conferences and have won countless web design awards.

All our course videos are taught using the SuperHi Editor, but you'll be able to apply everything you'll learn to a code editor of your choice. Many students go on to use other code editors, for example, if their workplace has an existing standard.
Our SuperHi Editor is designed with many smart features to help avoid wasted time looking for things like a typo or missing bracket (which is why we made it!), but the same code concepts apply to any editor.
Yea! After the course is over, you'll still have our support when it comes to things like career questions, resume, and portfolio reviews, etc. all to help you get the job and career you want.
We also provide 1:1 sessions for some of our courses! The number of sessions depends on the course that you signed up for.
If you'd like to arrange a 1:1 session after you've completed your course, email us at [email protected] and we'll happily arrange that for you!
