Tech with Jagmeet

Let’s start

Create first project in react by running following:

npx create-react-app reactpractice-jk

You will need Nodejs to execute this.

This will create react app with javascript.

Project name should not have capital letters

It provides some suggestions at the end of installation:

First, go into the project folder and then run

npm start

You will be able to see your first react app in localhost 😀

Now, let’s say you want typescript instead of Javascript in your app. Just run following in terminal:

npx create-react-app reacttypractice-jk --template typescript

First, go into the project folder and then run

npm start

There is another most popular way to create project these days i.e. Vite. It provides us more choices and interactive in a single command.

Happy learning React! Keep coding and enjoying the journey.
