Learn Firebase, P5 and React-storybook

React is one of the web’s most popular frameworks for building JavaScript applications. 

If you know what you’re doing, React can drastically simplify how you build, use, and maintain code.

Whether you’re a React newbie or you’re ready for advanced techniques, you can level-up with egghead. Explore our in-depth courses, lessons, and community resources to build more powerful applications and crack open your career.

In this lesson, we show how to setup React Storybook into an existing React project. We’ll go through common configuration files and how to adjust them.

Add React Storybook to a Project 

Components trigger actions via function props to notify of events that occur within the Component. We can inspect those events using React Storybook.

AngularJS is an open-source JavaScript framework, maintained by Google, that assists with running single-page applications. Its goal is to augment web-based applications with model–view–controller (MVC) capability, in an effort to make both development and testing easier.

The Firebase Forge provides a convenient GUI for visualizing and manipulating your data in real-time. Be sure to check out [this lesson](https://egghead.io/lessons/angularjs-get-started-with-firebase-and-angularfire) for getting Firebase setup.

[React Storybook](https://github.com/kadirahq/react-storybook) is a UI component development environment for React.
With that, you can develop UI components without running your app.

Here I show how to get started with React Storybook.
For more information, have a look at our [documentation](https://getstorybook.io/docs).

Getting Started with React Storybook

React Component stories can be dynamically loaded into React Storybook instead of doing it manually every time.

Load React Storybook Stories Dynamically

When using Firebase collections in your AngularJS application, you have access to a handy set of events emitted by the collection when changes in your data occur. Be sure to check out the [first lesson](https://egghead.io/lessons/angularjs-get-started-with-firebase-and-angularfire) in this series for the project source code.

Firebase Event Handling

Firebase provides a real-time syncing backend for your AngularJS applications in very few lines of code. In this lesson, you'll learn how to get started integrating it into your app.

Get Started with Firebase and AngularFire

Data has relationships, and Firebase allows you to define those relationships in your AngularJS applications.

Firebase Data Relationships

p5.js is a JavaScript library that starts with the original goal of Processing, to make coding accessible for artists, designers, educators, and beginners, and reinterprets this for today's web.

In this lesson we look at using color and the basic drawing methods of p5js, and how they can be combined to create a simple graphic on the canvas.

Firebase has several ways to provide authentication for your AngularJS application. In this lesson, Lukas will look at the most basic email/password approach.

Firebase Basic Authentication Part 1

Story is the smallest unit of React Storybook. A story describes a React Component, and its various states and variations. Stories can describe complex components with dynamic properties and data loaded from a service. In this lesson we will write our first React Storybook story.

Write the First React Storybook Story

React becomes incredibly powerful when coupled with a real-time backend like Firebase. See how easy it is to bring the two together and chat with Star Wars characters while you're at it.

React Storybook allows for easy snapshot testing integration with Facebook's Jest testing framework. Snapshot testing allows you to capture the state of your UI and then notify you when that UI has been altered. We can easily create and update snapshots with Storybook!

Authenticating with Firebase creates a 24 hour session for the user. This allows you to fetch the current session for the user, as well as logout the user and destroy the session.

Storybook is a UI component development environment for React, Vue, and Angular. With that, you can develop UI components without running your app.

Here I show how to set up Storybook to display React components from scratch.

Vue (pronounced /vjuː/, like view) is a progressive framework for building user interfaces. Unlike other monolithic frameworks, Vue is designed from the ground up to be incrementally adoptable. The core library is focused on the view layer only, and is very easy to pick up and integrate with other libraries or existing projects. On the other hand, Vue is also perfectly capable of powering sophisticated Single-Page Applications when used in combination with modern tooling and supporting libraries.

In this lesson we'll go through the process of setting up Storybook for Vue. We'll use Vue CLI to create a new Vue application and Storybook CLI to setup some initial stories and config. Storybook can help you develop UI components in an isolated area without running your full application.

Here I show how to add a landing/welcome page to your Storybook, so that first-time viewers get to read a message from you or have some orientation around the structure of the Storybook you are building. We also introduce the idea of sequential additions to your Storybook config so you can get a sense of how to modify it for your own needs.

Storybook has a rich Addons ecosystem that really adds a lot to the developer experience. Here I show how to set up the JSX Addon in Storybook to display the code behind React components. The juxtaposition of code and visual display can be very effective documentation for any users of your components.
