Learn Flux-architecture, Ruby and Webstorm

As a React application grows, so does the needs for organization and patterns. How do components communicate? How do we manage state across the application? How is data shared between components? 

These are the questions that Flux was built to answer.

In this series, we will explore React Flux, using ES6 (ES2015), babel, and webpack to manage our developer workflow.

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.

React: Flux Architecture (ES6)

Rails is a web-application framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web applications according to the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern.

In this lesson we'll look at an overview of how Flux works, setup our application structure and tools, and create our first component.

Flux Architecture: Overview and Project Setup

In this lesson we'll create a very simple application dispatcher utilizing the open source flux dispatcher from Facebook.

Flux Architecture: Application Dispatcher

In this lesson we'll create our Flux application's store which will manage the state of our application.

Flux Architecture: Application Store

In this lesson we'll create our initial components using the architecture we've built so far.

Flux Architecture: Components/Views

In this lesson we'll shift the responsibility of managing the state of our application over to a higher-order component rather than having each component managing it's own state.

Flux Architecture: Higher-Order Components

In this lesson we'll organize our components by feature.

Flux Architecture: Project Organization

Using our established architecture we'll make short work of a few remaining tasks to meet our application requirements.

Flux Architecture: Component Wrap Up

In this lesson we'll simplify future development by reducing the logic contained in our application's store.

Flux Architecture: Dumb Stores

When exploring a new framework or technology, it is nice to have a seed project or sandbox so you can just get in and start playing. Let's build our React playground using npm, browserify, 6to5, and more within WebStorm!

Setting up a React Playground Dev Environment

In this lesson we'll build our actions which will be sent to our dispatcher.

Flux Architecture: Application Actions

Lightweight yet powerful IDE, perfectly equipped for complex client-side development and server-side development with Node.js.

John Lindquist is a WebStorm wizard. In this lesson, he'll show you some of the tips & tricks he uses to squeeze maximum productivity out of his tool of choice. 

Tips & Tricks

You can easily share your code from WebStorm with others using the "Create Gist" feature. This lesson walks you through how to create a gist from a single or multiples files and also how to use gist.run to share a running version of your code

In this lesson we'll introduce routing into our application using react-router 1.0

Flux Architecture: Routing with react-router 1.0

WebStorm can save you tons of time by managing your imports for you. John walks you through a few key WebStorm importing tips to help speed up your importing workflow.

A quick tutorial covering installing Karma and running tests from the command line and Webstorm.

Introduction to Karma

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.

In this lesson John shows some tricks for speeding up your test suite. He digs into some handy features of WebStorm, including the *ddescriber* plugin, as well as some alternative methods for Jasmine for selectively running your tests.

In this lesson, we'll walk through installing a custom color scheme into our [WebStorm](https://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/) IDE. Dayle Rees's [daylerees/colour-schemes](https://github.com/daylerees/colour-schemes/blob/master/jetbrains/peacocks-in-space.icls) has a great collection of themes ready to install in different formats for various editors.

For this example, we will install the [Peacocks In Space](https://github.com/daylerees/colour-schemes/blob/master/jetbrains/peacocks-in-space.icls) theme into an OS X [WebStorm 11 EAP](https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/WI/WebStorm+EAP) installation. _Note: This process will be very similar (or identical) for previous versions of WebStorm and other editors in the [JetBrain's family of editors](https://www.jetbrains.com/)._
