Getting Started With a Plain Redux App
Beyond “hello world,” get started building your first application with the Redux toolkit.
We'll cover the following...
Traditionally, programming tutorials and books start off with a “hello world” example. We could do that, but let’s start off on a more interesting note.
Consider the application below:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8" /> <link rel="icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/favicon.ico" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" /> <meta name="theme-color" content="#000000" /> <meta name="description" content="Web site created using create-react-app" /> <!-- <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/logo192.png" /> --> <!-- manifest.json provides metadata used when your web app is installed on a user's mobile device or desktop. See https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/web-app-manifest/ --> <!-- <link rel="manifest" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/manifest.json" /> --> <!-- Notice the use of %PUBLIC_URL% in the tags above. It will be replaced with the URL of the `public` folder during the build. Only files inside the `public` folder can be referenced from the HTML. Unlike "/favicon.ico" or "favicon.ico", "%PUBLIC_URL%/favicon.ico" will work correctly both with client-side routing and a non-root public URL. Learn how to configure a non-root public URL by running `npm run build`. --> <title>React App</title> </head> <body> <noscript>You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.</noscript> <div id="root"></div> <!-- This HTML file is a template. If you open it directly in the browser, you will see an empty page. You can add webfonts, meta tags, or analytics to this file. The build step will place the bundled scripts into the <body> tag. To begin the development, run `npm start` or `yarn start`. To create a production bundle, use `npm run build` or `yarn build`. --> </body> </html>
The Flappy application
We’ve got Flappy, the cat whose mood can be toggled by a simple button click. How fortunate!
There are 7 buttons at the bottom of the page. Clicking any of these changes the emotional state of the cat. Give the application a click around, and ...
