All you need is basic web development and JavaScript knowledge.
In this course, you’ll start with the basics of React and React Hooks and then expand your knowledge by building a fun to-do list app, both the front-end and the back-end, which puts you in a state of learning in a practical way.
After finishing React and React Hooks, you’ll start with building the front-end of the app, you’ll style your app by using a third-party CSS library, build components for your app and imitate the behavior of the back-end. After finishing the front-end, you’ll begin with developing your back-end where you’ll create the database, develop routes in the back-end and finally integrate it with the front-end.
