🧑🏻‍💻 My First 5 {Fun} projects (source code + demo)

Introduction

Initial learning I started with practical coding to learn anything new. The below projects are done previously by me.

It may be helpful for someone who learning frontend development to read the code and gather some knowledge from these projects:

  1. Diary app

  2. 404 page not found

  3. Team with grid view

  4. Nested tree UI react component

  5. Magical text box (Personal experience)

1.Diary App (CMS)

This project is a content management system. I used the below tech stack.

Project Functionalities:

  1. Creating/editing an article

  2. Delete an article

  3. Mark as fav your article

Frontend: React, CSS, draft-js(Rich text editor) and Webpack

Backend: ExpressJS, Swagger(API documentation) and MongoDB

Diary app

Resources:

GitHub logo allsimpledevcode / my-diaries-front-end

React application with styled component

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

yarn test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

yarn build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

yarn eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration…

5.Magical text box (Personal experience)

I already covered this component in another article reference

This component builds when working on the SASS(Product) web application. This component requirement completely came from the designer.

Problem statement

When we use the text field component a customer is not able to see the full content. curtain width above the content will the text field overflow the text inside the content

At this time may someone suggest using a textarea component? but, the problem is the unwanted space on render, again the problem is a content overflow issue with a certain height.

Solution:

In UI it should look like a text field. When content grows it should increase automatically the component height.

That's how the discussion ended.

Let's see the real example:

Magic textbox
