My favorite technology that I’ve been working with and learning on this project is React! As I’ve been getting more familiar with it throughout the term I have come to realize how powerful it can be. Being able to break up sections of the UI into components with state variables has made a huge difference in not only the organization of the code, but it’s efficiency as well. Being able to re-use components has also been a great time saver as I am in the process right now of creating a grid with 1250 nodes. Each of those nodes stems from the same component which I was able to reuse, all while being able to pass in unique props into all of them.
Now that I’ve been using React a bunch, I feel as though I never want to go back to the conventional languages such as base JavaScript, html, and CSS.
