Learn Flow, Karma and Particle

flow

We'll go over some of the built-in types in Flow and how to add them to our projects by adding type annotations to our variables in JavaScript. We'll also learn about type mismatch errors when we give a variable a value that doesn't match its type annotation and how to fix it.

Primitive Types in Flow

webpack is a tool to build JavaScript modules in your application. To start using webpack from its cli or api, follow the Installation instructions. webpack simplifies your workflow by quickly constructing a dependency graph of your application and bundling them in the right order. webpack can be configured to customise optimisations to your code, to split vendor/css/js code for production, run a development server that hot-reloads your code without page refresh and many such cool features.

There are several steps involved with setting up [`Karma`](http://karma-runner.github.io/) to work on your webpack project. In this first step we'll initialize our karma configuration and setup our `package.json` `scripts`.

Initialize a Webpack Project with Karma for Testing

Chai is a BDD / TDD assertion library for node and the browser that can be delightfully paired with any javascript testing framework.

[Chai](https://npmjs.com/package/chai) assertions work great with the [Mocha](https://npmjs.com/package/mocha) testing framework. In this lesson we'll walk through out to install Chai and [karma-chai](https://npmjs.com/package/karma-chai) so you can use the `expect` assertions in your tests.

Use Chai assertions for tests in a Karma project

When writing tests run by Karma for an application that’s bundled with webpack, it’s easiest to integrate webpack and Karma directly together. In this lesson we’ll see how to utilize the [`karma-webpack`](https://npmjs.com/package/karma-webpack) plugin and reuse our existing webpack configuration to preprocess our test files with webpack.

Use Karma for Unit Testing with Webpack

Let's learn how to set up Facebook's Flow inside of a project and write a simple typecheck task that will let us run Flow against any files in our codebase.

Introduction to Karma

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.

Nuclide is the IDE Facebook employees use to write React code. But setting it up to use Flow type checking and Eslint to lint files on the fly is tricky. This video shows you how.

In this lesson we are going to add types throughout our basic todo list component. This includes type checking the component props, local state, and property methods. 

Type Check React Components With Flow

In this lesson we are going to take a React and Redux application and add flow types throughout. This includes type checking a react component, a reducer, some actions, and a connect method.
