Learn Greensock, Openapi and React-storybook

Animations attract the eye and add a higher level of engagement for your users. But they’re not easy to set up, and they don’t always look the way they should on every browser. 

Greensock is the best platform available for creating performant, highly-customizable animations. This course will walk you through the features of Greensock, including how to:

- animate an element
- manually control an animation
- animate between CSS classes

…and more, with cross-browser support to ensure your animations look sharp everywhere.

Ultra high-performance, professional-grade HTML5 animation for the modern web

Create Amazing Animations with GreenSock

In this course, we will build a ToDo API that stores notes using the OpenAPI Specification (Swagger). We will start with a blank API definition using the Swagger Online Editor. The Swagger definition file will be used to create a Node.js API. Along the way, we will discover how to implement additional details required for a fully functional API requests and responses. We will also learn about the powerful capabilities of Swagger to generate server side code and client libraries.

Open API Initiative (OAI) is focused on creating, evolving and promoting a vendor neutral API Description Format based on the Swagger Specification

openapi

Build Node.js APIs with OpenAPI Spec (Swagger)

Swagger is a project used to describe restful APIs using the OpenAPI Specification. It allows you to document your API so consumers understand the endpoints, parameters, and responses. In this lesson, I'll show you how to install the swagger command line tool, create a new API project using swagger, and introduce you to the swagger API editor.

Create an API with Swagger

In this lesson, you will learn how to define an HTTP GET endpoint using Swagger with URL parameters to identify the ID of the Todo item being requested.

Define an HTTP GET Endpoint with URL Parameters for a Node.js Server with Swagger

Schema definitions allow you to define the format and types of data sent and received by your API. This allows consumers of your API to be confident in using your API. In this lesson, you will learn how to create a schema definition for the Todo API server. 

Create An API Schema Definition Using Swagger

In this lesson, you will learn how to create an HTTP GET endpoint for a node.js server using Swagger. This endpoint will be used to return all of the Todo items from Elasticsearch to the client.

Define an HTTP GET Endpoint for a Node.js API Server with Swagger

This lesson shows you how to delete a Todo item from Elasticsearch using the Todo ID from the URL parameters according to the specifications defined in your Swagger API docs.

Create a Node.js function for an HTTP DELETE request for a Swagger API

This lesson demonstrates how to access the ID of a Todo item being deleted from the URL parameters when used with an HTTP DELETE method.



Define an HTTP DELETE Endpoint for a Node.js API Server with Swagger

In this lesson, you will learn how to define HTTP POST operations for your Todo API server using Swagger. Creating the endpoint, passing the todo in the request body, and parsing the todo are all demonstrated.

Define an HTTP POST Endpoint for a Node.js Server with Swagger

This lesson will teach you how to create the javascript functions defined by the Swagger specification to return all Todo items to the client when requested with an HTTP GET method.

Create a Node.js function for an HTTP GET request for a Swagger API

In this lesson, you will learn how to define multiple parameters in the API specification to identify the ID of the Todo item being updated in the URL, as well as the contents for the updated Todo item in the body of the request.

Define an HTTP PUT Endpoint for a Node.js API Server with Swagger

APIs created with Swagger have a built-in mock function, allowing you to mock responses from your API prior to writing the backend code to make it functional. In addition to learning how to enable this feature, I will show you how to write your own functions to enhance the mock responses returned when using the Swagger mock feature.

Mock API Responses with Swagger

There are a lot of great monitoring tools available for Node.js. It is also incredibly easy to build monitoring into your application. In this lesson, we will add precision monitoring to the function calls in the Todo API server, log it to the console, and persist those results to Elasticsearch where they can later be reviewed, graphed, and analyzed.

Build Monitoring into your API Server

This lesson shows you how to create the functions defined in the Todo API specification to create new Todo items when received in HTTP POST methods. You will also see the errors you will get when CORS is not properly configured and how to resolve them by installing the NPM CORS package.

Create a Node.js function for an HTTP POST request for a Swagger API

This lesson will teach you how to update a Todo item in Elasticsearch when received from an HTTP PUT method in your API server built with Swagger.

Create a Node.js function for an HTTP PUT request for a Swagger API

In this lesson, you will learn how to create a function in your Node.js Todo API server that gets the ID of the Todo item being requested from the URL and retrieve the Todo item from Elasticsearch.

Create a Node.js function for an HTTP GET request with URL parameters

In this lesson, I will show you how to update a simple, skeleton React application to work with the Todo API server built with Swagger. Using existing components, you will learn how to display all Todo items, update an existing Todo item, and add a new Todo item.

Connect an existing React application to an API server created with Swagger

The last step before deploying your new API server into production is to load test it. Load testing allows you to better understand the performance characteristics as well as forecast load and capacity. Fortunately, load testing is incredibly easy and I'll show you exactly how to create a load test plan, test the response from the API server to ensure it is responding correctly, and scale your test up to simulate as many users as needed.

Perform Load Tests on an API Server using Apache jmeter

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.

[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.
