Hi!, Like I mentioned in my last update, I took a break from everything ( a month and 3 weeks), the reason behind me missing my post on past month(april). I still had to do office work though, but its’ alright because it was fun. The time off that I took was the best decision in a while, It helped me rethink priorities.
Like I said in march post 2021, I’ll be posting with new Time management in mind.
React Update
I’ve been working on react projects and learning new things, So i’ve decided, that I should upgrade(a barebone react project that I cooked up a while ago called Rinku). upgraded from v1.x.x to v2.x
Release contains the seperate commits for each change
Updates that I did
- javascript -> typescript
- Redux, Redux-toolkit, Redux-Saga
- semantic-ui -> semantic-ui react
- Project structure, File naming structure
- React 16.x -> 17.x
- remove jquery dependency
Project Structure Update
My current preferred way of setting up folders
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| src | Source files for server |
| src/public/ | Static files to be used on client side |
| src/Saga/ | Redux-Saga files |
| src/Saga/*.saga.ts | Individual Saga files |
| src/Saga/network.ts | Server Communication logic |
| src/Store/ | Redux/Redux-toolkit files |
| src/Store/*.store.ts | Individual Store files |
| src/Hooks/*.hook.ts | Custom hooks |
| src/Containers/ | Every page for the app |
| src/Components/ | Common components for the whole app |
| src/Route/ | All Route setup |
| src/Utils/ | Common logic throught the whole app |
| src/Style/ | Style and assests, since create-react-app does not allow files outside src/ to be imported |
| .env.development | Development variables, configuring backend, etc. |
| .env.production | Development variables but for production |
Time Management
I cameback from my break on 22nd this month, Spent the last week of this month for upgrading this react project, Because of that I didn’t have time to do other things.
Next month’s schedule
I should, get back to work on my Scrum board.
week 1 & 2
- Complete the Friend feature, merge it with master branch.
week 3 & 4
- reafactor to use redux-toolkit
- move to redux async handlers
Note to future-self
Last year, It was trying to forget the month of May, but this year, not so much. Great, Hope this continues.
