Installation

Setup a basic project

Commands to launch

$ create-react-app starter-code # Create a React project folder "starter-code"
$ cd starter-code
$ rm -f src/*

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './index.css';

class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        {/* Your application code */}
      </div>

);

Bulma installation

$ npm install --save bulma

import 'bulma/css/bulma.css';

Instructions

Iteration 1 | Button Component

The goal is to create a component called Button that creates a <button> with the nice Bulma classes.

You will find the Bulma buttons documentation here: https://bulma.io/documentation/elements/button/

<!-- JSX version -->
<Button isSmall isDanger className="is-rounded my-class">Button 1</Button>
<Button isSmall isSuccess>Button 2</Button>

<!-- What is rendered in the DOM -->
<button class="button is-rounded my-class is-danger is-small">Button 1</button>
<button class="button is-small is-success">Button 2</button>

What is visually rendered

Because there are many cases to code, focus on the following classes: is-primary, is-success, is-danger.

If you need any help, you can have a look how to take the content between an opening tag and a closing tag: Children in JSX

Bonus

If you want, you can do all the cases by using the following object:

{
  isActive: 'is-active',
  isBlack: 'is-black',
  isCentered: 'is-centered',
  isDanger: 'is-danger',
  isDark: 'is-dark',
  isFocused: 'is-focused',
  isGrouped: 'is-grouped',
  isHovered: 'is-hovered',
  isInfo: 'is-info',
  isInverted: 'is-inverted',
  isLarge: 'is-large',
  isLight: 'is-light',
  isLink: 'is-link',
  isLoading: 'is-loading',
  isMedium: 'is-medium',
  isOutlined: 'is-outlined',
  isPrimary: 'is-primary',
  isRight: 'is-right',
  isRounded: 'is-rounded',
  isSelected: 'is-selected',
  isSmall: 'is-small',
  isStatic: 'is-static',
  isSuccess: 'is-success',
  isText: 'is-text',
  isWarning: 'is-warning',
  isWhite: 'is-white',
}

Iteration 2 | Navbar Component

Create a Navbar component, very simple, that displays a link to "Home", "Login" and "Signup" like in the following example:

For the "Login" and "Signup" button, you will have to reuse your Button React component.

To help you, you can use the code from the Bulma Transparent Navbar.

In the end, you will just need to write Navbar in your JSX to display your navbar.

Iteration 3 | FormField Component

Now it's time to create a new component FormField we will use multiple times in the future.

<!-- JSX version -->
<FormField label="Name" type="text" placeholder="e.g Alex Smith" />
<FormField label="Email" type="email" placeholder="e.g. alexsmith@gmail.com" />

<!-- What is rendered in the DOM -->
<div class="field">
  <label class="label">Name</label>
  <div class="control">
    <input class="input" type="text" placeholder="e.g Alex Smith">
  </div>
</div>
<div class="field">
  <label class="label">Email</label>
  <div class="control">
    <input class="input" type="email" placeholder="e.g. alexsmith@gmail.com">
  </div>
</div>

What is visually rendered

Iteration 4 | A Signup Page

Create a Signup page that contains:

• Navbar
• A form
  • A name FormField
  • An email FormField
  • A password FormField
  • A signup Button

Iteration 5 | Bonus

Before contunuing, ask for feedback from one of your teachers, he will give you a feedback about what you've done.

Then, you can:

• Refactor your code
• Create a Container component (for the class "container")
• Create a Message component, like explained just after

Message Component

Now, we are going to create Message component. You can find the documentation on Bulma's website: https://bulma.io/documentation/components/message/

<!-- JSX version -->
<Message isInfo title="Hello World">
  Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. <strong>Pellentesque risus mi</strong>.
</Message>
