Learn Ios, React-router and Screen-reader

A large number of people are unable to use the web effectively due to an impairment or disability.

As developers there are several tools and techniques we can use to make our web applications accessible, ensuring a great user experience that includes everyone.

We all agree that Accessibility is important. However, it’s a broad landscape and can be overwhelming figuring out where to start!

Erin Doyle is an expert in creating accessible React applications and has developed a course that will give you a concrete process for testing, refactoring, and building your applications with accessibility in mind.

After this course, you'll have a jump start on auditing and fixing accessibility issues in your applications and gain a better understanding of your target users and how to approach your web app design from their perspectives.


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.

Develop Accessible Web Apps with React

Open source framework for building truly native mobile apps with Angular, TypeScript or JavaScript.

nativescript

Objective C is a very interesting programming language which offers a lot of power as well as interesting paradigms. Let’s look at some Objective C api’s and how they translate to NativeScript. In particular, let’s learn how to wire up iOS delegates using [Filestack's FSPickerDelegate](https://github.com/filestack/FSPicker#fspickerdelegate) as an example. We will also look at handling WeakRef’s and iterating an NSArray.

Use Objective C Delegates in NativeScript for Angular iOS apps

One of the exciting benefits you have with NativeScript is the ability to write native code (Java and Objective C) directly in JavaScript/TypeScript allowing you to create a consistent high level api over top of both underlying iOS Objective C/Swift and Android Java apis. In this lesson, we will look at how to design a consistent api that taps into the appropriate native api’s on the target platforms using underlying native libraries.

Develop a consistent plugin api across your Android and iOS NativeScript app

To prepare your development environment to code against native apis such as Objective C, Swift and Java, let's learn how to [install tns-platform-declarations](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tns-platform-declarations) to provide rich intellisense support for all the native iOS and Android api’s. This lesson will cover how to modify your tsconfig.json and references.d.ts properly to ensure working with native api’s is smooth and as helpful as possible.

React-router is the community favourite routing solution - it can handle all of your complex routing needs and in this lesson we’ll cover what’s needed to enable it’s use within Preact. https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router

Integrate react-router with Preact

In this lesson we'll explore debugging our React Native application in an actual iOS device.

React Native: Debugging on an iOS Device

We will learn how to install an Objective C library distributed via a [CocoaPod](https://cocoapods.org) into our project and expose its native api to our app. Specifically, we will cover how to immediately start working with the library even when a [NativeScript](/q/nativescript) plugin does not exist for it. Take for example [Filestack](https://filestack.com), a really powerful file uploading api that provides an SDK written in [JavaScript](/q/javascript) for the web, but also offers native SDK's for iOS and Android. Let's take a look at how to code right against this [native iOS SDK](https://filestack.com/docs/sdks/ios).

In this lesson we'll look at some simple ways to customize TabBarIOS, creating a scrollable tab area, and implementing custom icons in TabBarIOS.Item.

React Native: TabBarIOS Customization

screen-reader

There are many techniques for hiding content in user interfaces, and not all are created equal! Learn how different hiding techniques in HTML, CSS and ARIA impact keyboard and screen reader users in addition to visual display. As a bonus, we'll also take a look using a screen reader on a mobile device.

How Visible vs. Hidden Elements Affect Keyboard/Screen Reader Users

Learn how to generate TypeScript declaration files for all native api’s for iOS, including any 3rd party Objective C/Swift libraries included in your project via Cocoapods or other means. This will allow you to view all the metadata for included iOS libraries to see what classes and apis are exposed to NativeScript.

Generate metadata TypeScript declarations for Objective C/Swift libraries on iOS

Building a custom NativeScript XML view component for iOS entails several interesting notes, like overriding the onLoaded method of the base NativeScript View class. Let’s look at how to properly build a custom component based on an underlying native view widget with NativeScript XML which may come from a CocoaPod. We will learn several important aspects regarding Objective C properties and methods you will need to consider. In particular, we will implement this [Objective C view component](https://github.com/Boris-Em/BEMAnalogClock)

Swift is an exciting and intuitive programming language developed by Apple to be easier to learn than Objective C. It's syntax also more closely resembles JavaScript. Some native libraries you could work with may have been developed with Swift. Let’s look at a couple cases you could run into when trying to work with a Swift based iOS library. In particular, we will be implementing this [Swift 3.0 CocoaPod](https://cocoapods.org/pods/SimplePDF). Also learn how to write files to your app’s document folder using NativeScript’s ‘file-system’ module. 

Convert a Swift library to NativeScript for Angular iOS apps

React Native lets you build mobile apps using only JavaScript. It uses the same design as React, letting you compose a rich mobile UI from declarative components.

react-native

Learn to write components that render differently on iOS and Android, but present the same API. First, we'll use the Platform module to change behavior based on the platform. Then, we'll use the platform-specific file extensions, .ios.js and .android.js, to render platform-specific components.


Writing Platform-Specific Components for iOS and Android in React Native

React Router is a complete routing library for React.

react-router

In this lesson, we’ll install React Router as a project dependency and add links that will update the url via pushState to avoid reloading our page on changes.

Add React Router to a Redux Application

In this lesson, we’ll wire up React Router to pass a url based filter parameter into our component and create a selector function to filter our state data between the store and our components by hooking into the `ownProps` parameter of `mapStateToProps`.

Filter State Data in Redux with a Selector Function and React Router

In this lesson, we will start with a list of content from a React Native FlatList that we will then transform into a three-per-row grid.

Display Contents of a React Native FlatList as a Grid

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the `SafeAreaView` component to avoid the sensor cluster (the notch) and home activity indicator on the iPhone X.

Use the SafeAreaView Component in React Native for iPhone X Compatibility

In this lesson we'll use the `match.path` value passed in by React Router to setup dynamic routes for Tabs. This will allow us to setup dynamic tabs which can be navigated to based upon the URL. With this pattern we can change the base path and our tab routes will automatically match and render correctly.

Create Nested Tab Routes with Dynamic Paths with React-Router

In this lesson we'll show how to setup the Prompt component from React Router. We'll prompt with a static message, as well as a dynamic method with the message as a function. Finally we'll show that you can return `true` from the message as a function to dynamically allow navigation.

Prevent Navigation with the React Router Prompt Component

In this lesson we'll show how the Link component `to` prop can receive an object. This allows  us to pass `state` to the route. With the nav state we destructure off of location we can determine if a user wants to open a modal or on a cold visit show an image embedded in the page.

Create a Modal Route with Link and Nav State in React Router

In this lesson we'll create a protected route just for logged in users. We'll combine a Route with a render prop and use a loggedIn prop to determine if the route should be allowed to be accessed. Finally we'll use nav state to preserve the location the user visited and redirect them back to the protected route once they login.
