Learn Leaflet, Ngrx and Twit

Very (very) quick and simple start to using [NgRx](https://ngrx.io/).

RxJS powered state management for Angular applications, inspired by Redux.

NgRx Ultra Small Quick Start

If you've ever worked on a website for a business, there's a good chance you've included a map.

A Google Map embed is sufficient for showing a location, but doesn't leave you many customization options.

React Leaflet to the rescue!

In this course, Colby Fayock will guide you through a series of lessons and challenges that will build your map making skills as you build out a web app for a fictional restaurant.

You'll get practice with handling API keys and using React Hooks to implement a custom interactive map complete with metadata and additional overlays.

This course has built-in challenges that you are encouraged to pause and work through, but feel free to just watch.

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.

Build Maps with React Leaflet

In this collection, you'll learn the basics of creating a new map in your React application with React Leaflet. We'll walk through adding the map itself as well as adding markers with popups, different shapes, and increasingly complex features to your map!

Mapping with React Leaflet

In this course we’ll learn how to create Twitter bots. We’ll first learn how to interface with the Twitter API using Twit.js, which allows us to post statuses, search tweets, and interact with followers. We’ll create several example bots that show the diversity of possibilities, using powerful tools such as RiTa.js, Google’s Cloud Vision API, and Tracery. We’ll learn how to tweet data from Google Spreadsheets, and to compose and tweet a song for an audio bot. We’ll also learn how to host our bot logic on Heroku and Docker. 

Twitter API Client for node

Supports both the REST and Streaming API.

twit

Create your own twitter bots

We’ll get a real-time stream of tweets, and learn how to filter a stream by keyword, location, and user.

Use the Twitter Stream API with Twit.js

Leaflet is the leading open-source JavaScript library for mobile-friendly interactive maps. Weighing just about 38 KB of JS, it has all the mapping features most developers ever need.

Leaflet makes creating maps in the browser *dead simple*. With some HTML and 3 lines of JavaScript, we can quickly have a map displaying.

Get Started with LeafletJS Mapping

With a basic map in place we can add shapes, like US states. We will then see how to style the shapes to make a visually appealing map.

Adding Shapes to Maps with Leaflet and GeoJSON

In this lesson, our bot will tweet hello to the Twitter world! We'll do this by using Twit's POST method to post our status to the statuses/update endpoint.

Post Statuses with Twit.js

In this lesson, we’ll create multiple functions to request, download, and save photos and data from NASA's API, and then have our bot upload these photos to Twitter and post them along with their descriptions. We'll also learn how to tweet videos using a video from NASA’s space archives.

Tweet Media Files with Twit.js

We’ll learn how your bot can get its list of followers, follow people, and look up friendships. We'll use Twit's GET method to get our followers at the followers/list endpoint, to get the users we follow at the friends/ids and friends/list endpoints, and to look up our friendships with the friendships/lookup endpoint. We'll also use Twit's POST method to follow someone at the friendships/create endpoint, and to send messages by posting to the direct_messages/new endpoint. 

Work with Users in Twit.js

We’ll learn the basics of interacting with tweets, including retweeting, deleting, favoriting, and replying to tweets. We'll get our home timeline by using Twit's GET method to access the `statuses/home_timeline` endpoint, including the count parameter, which lets us get back a certain number of tweets. We'll also pass it a callback. We'll learn how to cycle through the data (the tweets) we get back and see what information is included. We'll learn how to retweet statuses by posting to `statuses/retweet` and including the tweet id. We can unretweet by posting to `statuses/unretweet` with the same tweet id. We'll also learn how to like a tweet by posting to `favorites/create` with a tweet id, and unlike a tweet by posting to `favorites/destroy` with a tweet id. We'll also learn how to reply to a tweet by posting to `statuses/update`, with a status that includes the handle of the user we're replying to and `in_reply_to_status_id` parameter, which is the id of the tweet we're replying to. We'll learn how to delete a tweet by posting to `statuses/destroy` with the tweet's id. 

Interact with Tweets with Twit.js 

We’ll learn how to search tweets with the Twitter Search API, using Twit's GET method to get the search/tweets endpoint. We'll use the query and count parameters to get the search term(s) and number of tweets that we want. We'll learn how to get exact phrases, multiple words, one of several words, emoticons, hashtags, photos/videos, urls, and how to remove words from our results. We'll learn how to implement the safe filter and how to filter by media, website, or date. We'll learn how to get recent results, popular results, results by location, and results by language. 

The search API returns for relevance, and not completeness. If you want all the tweets from a search term, you should use the stream API (which we'll go over in the next lesson). 

Use the Twitter Search API with Twit.js

We’ll go over the basic Twitter bot setup, including how to start a project from scratch, install necessary packages, and store our private keys in environment variables. 

Set Up a Basic Twitter Bot with Twit.js

Rendering GeoJSON data on a map and interacting via mouse over, mouse out, and click.

Interactive Leaflet Maps with GeoJSON data

In this lesson, we see how to use the Angular CLI's `ng add` command to add NgRx to a project. [Check out the official docs](https://ngrx.io/guide/store/install) to learn more.

Use the Angular CLI to Add NgRx to Your Project

In this lesson, you'll learn how to install the `@ngrx/schematics` package using `ng add`. This command will also make these schematics your default collection! Read more about NgRx schematics [in the official docs](https://ngrx.io/guide/schematics).

Install and Use NgRx Schematics

In this lesson, you will learn how to add a map to your React application using React Leaflet. We will walk through importing and configuring the Map and TileLayer components from React Leaflet to set up the new map.

Create a New Map using React Leaflet

In this lesson, you will learn how to add a Marker and Popup component to a Map when using React Leaflet. We'll walk you through importing the components and adding each one to the Map. Additionally, we'll resolve an issue with loading marker images that's inherent to creating a new React Leaflet map in Create React App, which we'll fix by manually importing the image from Leaflet and configuring those images to the marker.

Add a React Leaflet Marker with a Popup to a Map

In this lesson, you will learn how to add the Polygon and Circle shape components to a Map when using React Leaflet. We'll walk you through importing both components, adding each component to the Map, and setting a unique color for each shape.

Add Shapes to a Map in React Leaflet

In this lesson, you'll learn how to style shapes on your map to change the look and feel using React Leaflet's API. We'll use React component props like color and weight on our shapes to change the colors and styles.

Style React Leaflet Shapes using Component Props

In this lesson, you'll learn how to use CSS to style and animate shapes on your React Leaflet map. We'll use the className prop to add a custom class and add CSS to customize our shapes.
