Learn Leaflet, Parti-corgi and React-storybook

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.

How to Livestream Code and Design on Twitch

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

Storybook is a UI component development environment for React, Vue, and Angular. With that, you can develop UI components without running your app.

Here I show how best to configure a React Storybook to use [Typescript](/q/typescript) (with TSX). This lets you write your reusable components with maximal type safety. Please see the provided code for the full source.

A short look at what I do before I change from my "Starting Soon" scene to my "live scene" and a brief overview of what to except from the collection

Introduction to Livestreaming

We cover some of the twitch interface and open a twitch account

Starting a Twitch account to livestream

We introduce OBS and compare it to SLOBS, download and set up our first scene including desktop capture and audio tips.

Introduction to OBS and creating your first scene

We cover how to get your stream key, how to use that stream key to test bandwidth and CPU usage settings, and go live on Twitch for the first time.

Going live on Twitch for the first time and testing bandwidth

While there are many useful tools and toys to pull together for a livestream, the truth is you don't need any of them to start.

What gear do I need to livestream?

It's likely that you will have many streams where no one is there, or people are there and they aren't telling you they are. Does it matter?

What if nobody comes to watch my livestream?

What is a Streamdeck?

[Streamlabs](https://streamlabs.com/) has two major halves: Streamlabs OBS, which is an OBS competitor, and Streamlabs-the-SaaS, which includes tools like chatbots, polls, giveaways, and loyalty rewards.

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.

Style and Animate a React Leaflet Shape with Custom CSS

In this lesson, you will learn how to use React hooks to interface with the Leaflet Map API in React Leaflet. We'll connect a ref to our Map component using the useRef hook and then use the useEffect hook to access that ref, find our Map instance, and use it to fly to a new location.

In this lesson, you learn how to use the React Leaflet ZoomControl component to add a custom zoom control to your map. We'll walk through removing the default control to avoid duplicates, using the ZoomControl position prop to change its location, and setting custom icons with the zoomInText and zoomOutText props.

Change the React Leaflet Map ZoomControl Location and Icons

In this lesson, you will learn how to add GeoJSON data to a map in React Leaflet. Using the National Parks in the United States, we'll import a GeoJSON document, create a new Leaflet GeoJSON instance, and add a marker with a popup for each park.
