GitHub Tips & Tricks

JavaScript community has been shaken recently by a release of Svelte 3 and for a good reason - it's a completely different approach than React or Vue. To quote the docs:

"[Svelte](https://svelte.dev/) is a radical new approach to building user interfaces. Whereas traditional frameworks like React and Vue do the bulk of their work in the browser, Svelte shifts that work into a compile step that happens when you build your app."

**The best part?** If you have 26 spare minutes you can learn the basics of Svelte 3 and start building your own apps with it!

Enjoy!



The magical disappearing UI framework

 - The web's JavaScript bloat crisis, solved. Svelte turns your templates into tiny, framework-less vanilla JavaScript.
 - Simple and familiar. Build apps out of composable, easy-to-write blocks using languages you already know.
 - Super fast, rock solid. Compile-time static analysis ensures the browser does no more work than it needs to.

SSH provides a secure way for your to [connect to and authenticate with GitHub's servers](https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/about-ssh). While HTTPS connections use usernames and passwords as credentials, SSH instead uses public and private key pairs. These can be generated on your system using a CLI like [`ssh-keygen`](https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent) and then associated with your GitHub account using the public key.

In some cases, you may need to connect to more than one GitHub account from the same system. For example, you may have [separate accounts for personal and professional projects](https://ryanharris.dev/managing-ssh-keys-for-github/), which can be difficult to manage manually. Using `ssh-agent` and a SSH configuration file, you can alleviate this pain point by automatically determining which key to use based on your GitHub repository's `git` URL.

Bash is a Unix shell and command language written by Brian Fox for the GNU Project as a free software replacement for the Bourne shell. Bash is a command processor that typically runs in a text window, where the user types commands that cause actions. Bash can also read and execute commands from a file, called a shell script.

Github Actions are an awesome tool from Github that allows us to automate tasks using code-based workflow configuration files. There's also a large marketplace that comes stocked with many useful tools that are ready out of the box.

But sometimes the options available don't completely solve our needs or maybe we're working with a new technology that's simply not available as an Action yet. Luckily, Github allows anyone to create their own Actions using common technologies like Javascript via Node.

We'll learn how to create a new Javascript-based Github Action running on Node. We'll first walk through a simple Hello World example, learn how to test it locally, version control it, use it in the wild, and move on to more advanced solutions that include using packages from npm!

***Note: Active maintenance for Recompose has been discontinued since the announcement for React hooks. Your existing code using Recompose will still work. Recompose is not compatible with RxJS version 6 and beyond. You can read more about the decision [here.](https://github.com/acdlite/recompose/issues/756#issuecomment-438674573)*** 


Loading data and handling events almost always introduces layers of complexity into React apps. Recompose and RxJS solve your async problems by using Streams to output components. This course walks you through combining the powers of React and RxJS to stream data into JSX with streaming patterns and pure React components.

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 course, you will learn to use many of the most powerful and convenient higher-order components within Recompose by coding several real-world examples. Using recompose looks very different from “vanilla” React; so you will also get comfortable with the look and feel of a “recomposed” component. The best part is no more need for class components! You’ll learn how to use Recompose to both modify components and also create your own higher-order components.

Higher Order Components with Functional Patterns Using Recompose

Publishing a JavaScript library for public use requires some extra steps. You need to think about how people will use the library. From end users, to contributors your library now has a variety of people outside of yourself potentially making use of the code that you've released into the wild.

From Github and npm, to releasing beta versions, semantic versioning, code coverage, continuous integration, and providing your library with a solid set of unit tests, there are a ton of things to learn.

This series will guide you through a set of steps to publish a JavaScript open source library.

Web accessibility (also referred to as a11y) is the design and creation of websites that can be used by everyone. Accessibility support is necessary to allow assistive technology to interpret web pages.

React fully supports building accessible websites, often by using standard HTML techniques.

Erin Doyle is an expert in creating accessible React applications and has developed a course that will give you a concrete process for auditing react apps for accessibility. In this course, you will go through different tools and libraries to audit components in a React app.

Fast, easy and reliable testing for anything that runs in a browser.

How to Contribute to an Open Source Project on GitHub

Learn how to use the 'compose' function to mix together HOCs, even ones from other libraries like 'connect' from redux.

Compose Multiple Higher Order Components Together using Recompose

npm is the package manager for JavaScript. Find, share, and reuse packages of code from hundreds of thousands of developers — and assemble them in powerful new ways.

npm packages almost always have a git repo tied to them for version control. We will start our package by initializing a git repository.

Add version control to npm packages using git init

Learn how to use the 'withState' and 'withHandlers' higher order components to easily add local state to—and create a reusable local state pattern for—your functional stateless components. No need for classes!


Add Local State to a Functional Stateless Component using Recompose

Learn how to use the 'withReducer' higher order component using the alternative reducer form. If you like using reducers in redux, you’ll be able to reuse that same technique but for local state.

Add Local State with Redux-like Reducers using Recompose

Learn the proper patterns for writing a higher order component from scratch.

Write a Higher Order Component from Scratch

Learn how to use the 'mapProps' higher-order component to modify an existing component’s API (its props). 'mapProps' takes incoming props and changes them however you’d like; for example, filtering the props by a field.

Transform Props by using the Recompose mapProps Higher Order Component

Learn how to use the ‘withProps’ higher order component to pre-fill a prop, unable to be overridden.

Lock Props by using the Recompose withProps Higher Order Component

Learn how to use the 'lifecycle' higher-order component to conveniently use hooks without using a class component.

Add Lifecycle Hooks to a Functional Stateless Component using Recompose

Learn how to use the ‘flattenProp’ higher order component to take a single object prop and spread each of its fields out as a prop.

Flatten a Prop using Recompose

Learn how to use the ‘branch’ and ‘renderComponent’ higher-order components to show errors or messaging when your component is in a non-optimal state. Avoid putting extraneous logic to show errors or messaging into your core component by organizing your non-optimal states into custom higher-order components.

Show Error Messages based on Non-Optimal States with Recompose

Learn how to use the ‘branch’ and ‘renderNothing’ higher-order
components to render nothing when a certain prop condition is
met. Sometimes you only want to render a component when valid
props exist or are in a certain condition; ‘renderNothing’ is
an easy way to completely remove the component when you don’t
need to show it.

Render Components Based on Predicates in Recompose

Learn how to use the 'branch' and 'renderComponent' higher-order components to show a spinner while a component loads.
