Structuring and Securing React apps

Being able to secure certain parts of your app is very important. In this class we’ll cover the two most important layers: 1) API layer, the data that the user can read or change. 2) React layer, the paths of the React app that the user can access. In this class we are going to explain how to secure both layers focusing on the client-side of the application.

Styling in React

Styling apps is an important and sometimes underestimated task. Let’s learn how to do it right following the React philosophy. Let’s start by questioning some design principles that have dominated the way we’ve styled websites for the last few decades. We will explore different ways of using CSS-in-JS and switch to the new way step by step.
