React Gallery App
--Description This project is a React App that loads a simple gallery of images from the Flickr API. User may search any keyword and application will make a request to the Flickr API, interpret the response, and render images in a gallery style display.
--Skills and Process Skills: React, React-Router, Axios, External API -Site built via create-react-app from 'npx create-react-app' -React is simply a front-end UI. This app demonstrates the following: 1. react-router-dom used to declare routes. This app uses 'BrowserRouter', 'Switch', and 'Route' to maintain history, redirect search queries to new URLs, and initialize the app at a custom URL 2. App utilizes axios to fetch requests from the Flickr API, and return a promise. This api request is declared in an app method, and called via the app's componentDidMount() method to set initial state. This initial state contains arrays of objects containing Flickr's image information. 3. App contains both functional components and classes. The 'App' component passes application methods to the 'SearchForm' class and application state to the 'PhotoContainers' functional component. 4. 'PhotoContainers' component renders a 'Photo' component. 'Photo' uses Flickr's url convention to render the image via parameters specified in 'PhotoContainers'
--Project Attempt Meets Expectations --Project meets 'Exceeds Expectations' requirements, except it does not include a custom 404 page.
This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
