Responsive Web Design

A method of designing web pages to adapt to different screen sizes, ensuring optimal viewing experience across various devices.

Media Queries

CSS rules that apply different styles based on screen size, device type, or other conditions. Crucial for responsive design.

Semantic HTML

HTML elements that describe their content's meaning instead of just its presentation, making web pages more accessible and easier for search engines to understand.

Flexible Layouts

Web page layouts that adjust to different screen sizes without requiring separate designs for each device.

Study Notes

Responsive Web Design (RWD)

  • RWD adapts layouts to different screen sizes, avoiding separate designs for each device.
  • Flexible layouts, images, and CSS media queries are crucial for RWD.
  • RWD is vital for websites accessible on various devices (phones to desktops).
  • Google prioritizes mobile-friendly sites in search ranking.

HTML Structure

  • <!DOCTYPE html> declaration ensures correct page rendering.
  • HTML tags (<html>, <head>, <body>) structure page content.
  • Semantic HTML (<header>, <nav>, <section>, <footer>) improve accessibility and SEO.
  • Generic tags (<div>, <span>) are less preferable to semantic tags for structure.

CSS Styling and Layouts

  • CSS styles web pages.
  • External stylesheets separate CSS from HTML for better maintenance.
  • CSS layout techniques (Flexbox, Grid) are adaptable and support RWD.
  • Media queries apply different CSS styles based on screen size or device type.

JavaScript Interactivity

  • JavaScript adds dynamic and interactive elements to websites.
  • Animations, form validations, and responsive menus use JavaScript.
  • JavaScript controls dynamic behavior on webpages.

React Components

  • React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces (especially single-page apps).
  • Building UI components allows for independent and reusable blocks.
  • Functional components are simple functions returning UI elements (JSX, similar to HTML).
  • Functional components use JSX to declare the UI elements within the returned object.
  • Class components (using ES6 classes) often implement more complex logic.

Virtual DOM

  • React uses a virtual DOM to improve update efficiency.
  • Updates occur on the virtual DOM first, optimizing real DOM changes.
  • One-way data flow (unidirectional data flow) simplifies debugging and understanding application state.

Component Lifecycle

  • React components have lifecycle phases, including 'mounting' and 'unmounting'.
  • Component lifecycle methods can be added to React functional components using 'useEffect' hooks.
  • 'hooks' are crucial, implementing lifecycle behaviors without classes.
  • Props (read-only data) are provided to components from parent components, passing properties
  • State (mutable data managed locally) is used within components, reacting to dynamic behavior with re-renders

JavaScript XML (JSX)

  • JSX is a syntax extension akin to HTML inside JavaScript code.
  • JSX structure, such as HTML elements or attributes, is utilized directly within JavaScript code.
  • JSX expressions are defined using curly braces ({ }).

Props and State

  • Props are read-only data from parent to child components.
  • State is component-managed data that changes over time, causing re-renders.

RESTful APIs

  • RESTful APIs use HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) for interacting with resources.
  • RESTful APIs are efficient for communication across a network, with specific status codes.
  • RESTful API examples demonstrate CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete).
  • HTTP status codes (like 200 OK, 404 Not Found, 500 Internal Server Error) signify request outcomes.
  • Clients consume API responses via client-side JS (Fetch API).
  • Testing API response and functionality with tools like Postman.
