Learn Alpine, Hapi and Testing-library

In 2018, Kent C. Dodds wrote: "The more your tests resemble the way your software is used, the more confidence they can give you." This phrase became the guiding principle for the entire Testing Library ecosystem. 

A few years later, the React Testing Library became the de facto library for writing unit and integration tests in the React ecosystem.

Thanks to its user-centric perspective, our tests are closer to our user experience and far away from implementation details.

In this course, you will learn how to:

- render your components
- properly query your UI for elements while keeping accessibility and your users' experience in mind
- improve your testing experience with the usage of some utilities
- interact with your components to fire events
- leverage asynchronous utilities to customize your testing flow
- get rid of the annoying "not wrapped in act" warning

After this course, you should be able to write and debug any test using the React Testing Library!

The `@testing-library` family of packages helps you test UI components in a user-centric way.

You want to write maintainable tests that give you high confidence that your components are working for your users. As a part of this goal, you want your tests to avoid including implementation details so refactors of your components (changes to implementation but not functionality) don't break your tests and slow you and your team down.

Testing Library accomplish these goals so you can be confident your application will work when it gets to the end user.

An Introduction to the React Testing Library

Welcome to this beginner level series on Alpine JS! 👋🏞

Alpine JS is a rugged, minimal framework for composing JavaScript behaviour in your markup. It brings declarative, reactive, data-driven nature of libraries like React or Vue to your HTML templates.

In this series, you will learn about Alpine's handy **directives**. You'll discover how to define a component scope with `x-data`, run code on mount with `x-init`, attach event listeners with `x-on`, display data with `x-text`, decide wether or not to show an element with `x-show`, iterate through data with `x-for`, retrieve a DOM element with `x-ref`, learn how to achieve _two-way data binding_ with `x-model`, and much more.

You'll also learn how **"modifiers"** can be applied and chained to directives to provide additional functionality: control the animation transition of entering and leaving DOM elements, debounce an event listener, etc.

We'll also touch on what Alpine calls **"magic properties"**, which give you access to native browser events (`$event`), reference to DOM elements (`$refs`), and more.

You'll gradually discover Alpine's API and syntax, from building simple tabs to a mini app that fetches a dog picture based on a "breed" search field. 🐶

**Get ready to breathe some fresh air** - it's time to walk into cool, green Alpine pastures! 🏞

Alpine.js offers you the reactive and declarative nature of big frameworks like Vue or React at a much lower cost.

You get to keep your DOM, and sprinkle in behavior as you see fit.

hapi is a battle-tested, full-featured, framework for building web applications and services with Node.js. With integrated support for essentials like authentication, caching and validation, and a powerful plugin system, hapi is ideal for projects and teams of any size.

This course will introduce hapi, some of it’s plugins, and guide you through many of hapi’s core features.

A rich framework for building applications and services hapi enables developers to focus on writing reusable application logic instead of spending time building infrastructure.

Introduction to Node Servers with Hapi.js

View engines, or template engines, allow you to maintain a clean separation between your presentation layer and the rest of your application. This video will demonstrate how to use the vision plugin with hapi to enable template support.

hapi.js - View engines 

hapi does not support serving static files out of the box. Instead it relies on a module called Inert. This lesson will cover serving static files using Inert's custom handlers.

hapi.js - Serving static files

Routing is a fundamental aspect of any framework. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use path parameters in hapi's router. We'll also touch on how the router uses specificity to order routes internally.

hapi.js - Route parameters

hapi doesn't ship with logging support baked in. Luckily, hapi's rich plugin ecosystem includes everything needed to configure logging for your application. This video will introduce good, a process monitor for hapi, and good-console, a reporter for good that outputs to standard out.

hapi.js - Logging with good and good-console

hapi makes handling POST and PUT payloads easy by buffering and parsing them automatically without requiring additional modules or middleware. This video will demonstrate how to handle JSON and form based request payloads via hapi's route configuration.

hapi.js - POST and PUT request payloads

hapi's reply interface is one of it's most powerful features. It's smart enough to detect and serialize objects, buffers, promises and even streams. This video will demonstrate first hand how to use the reply method to send your data to the client, no matter the format.

hapi.js - Replying to Requests

Think of hapi's `reply()` function as "what you want to say" and the `response` object as "how you want to say it". While `reply` controls the payload sent to the client, the `response` object will allow you to control how the client interprets the payload by manipulating status code, content type, state and more.

hapi.js - Using the response object

hapi automatically responds with JSON for any error passed to a route's `reply()` method. But what if your application needs errors rendered in HTML? This lesson shows how to implement friendly HTML error messages using hapi extension events.

hapi.js - Friendly error pages with extension events

hapi supports request validation out of the box using the joi module. Request path parameters, payloads, and querystring parameters can be validated with joi's simple, yet powerful, notation. This lesson covers the basics of validating requests using joi.

hapi.js - Request Validation with Joi

hapi has built-in support for parsing cookies from a request headers, and writing cookies to a response, making state management easy and straight-forward. It even has built in support for cookie encryption and auto detects when a cookie contains JSON, parsing or stringifying automatically.

hapi.js - Managing State with Cookies

hapi is a rock solid server framework for Node.js. Its focus on modularity and configuration-over-convention makes it the perfect match for any size development team. This video will introduce you to hapi by showing you the bare minimum needed to run a hapi server.

hapi.js - Up and running

Instead of using middlware, hapi provides a number of points during the lifecycle of a request that you can hook-in to provide additional functionality, called "extension events". This lesson will give you an introduction to using extension events, and show how they can be used to manipulate the request or response in-flight.

hapi.js - Extending the request with lifecycle events

In this lesson, we see how the `x-model` directive makes achieving "two-way data binding" effortless in Alpine JS.

We see what it would take to recreate the same functionality with an `x-bind` directive for the input value, as well as an `@input` event listener which, thanks to an access to the browser's native events via the `$event` magic property, sets the state value to `$event.target.value`.

Keep a DOM input and state value in sync with the `x-model` directive in Alpine JS

In this lesson, we learn how the `x-init` directive in Alpine JS lets us run a JavaScript expression once the component has initiated.

We see the nuances that allow us to trigger that code before Alpine performs initial DOM updates, or after these updates have been made.

Focus in input field on page load with `x-init` in Alpine JS

In this lesson, we define a "count" state value with the `x-data` directive provided by Alpine JS. This defines a new scoped component, which can have access to this state.

We then display the "count" value in our HTML with the `x-text` directive, which updates an element's `innerText` value.

We also hook up buttons with click event listeners with `x-on:click`, which allows us to modify the count value as desired.

Update a count state value with the x-on event listener directive in Alpine JS

In this lesson, we create a set of tabs with Alpine JS, where only the content of the currently active tab is visible. To do this, we define an `activeTab` state value with `x-data. We then wire up our buttons to change the value of `activeTab` on click, and use `x-show` to determine if the tab content should be visible or not, based on the value of `activeTab`.

We also take control of the `class` attribute with `x-bind`, and we conditionally output an "active" class based on, you guessed it, the value of `activeTab`.

Toggle visibility and styles based on state with `x-show` and `x-bind` in Alpine JS

In this lesson, we move the component definition to a function, defined in a script tag in the HTML document.

We then iterate through an Array of Objects with the `x-for` directive in Alpine JS. We use a `<template>` tag to wrap the HTML element we want to repeat for each item, and put the `x-for` directive on that template tag.

We also define a "computed" property by adding a method on our function, which checks if a given ID matched the currently active tab id. This computed property allows us to determine wether or not to apply the "active" classname to our tab buttons.

Iterate through data with the `x-for` attribute in Alpine JS

In this lesson, we smoothen the transitions between tabs by applying a `transition` modifier to our `x-show` directive.

We see how we can ignore the leaving elements, and focus the animation on the entering elements. We tweak the transition duration and origin by chaining additional modifiers to our `x-show` directive.

Control enter and leave transitions with the `x-show.transition` modifier in Alpine JS
