Overview of React Typescript example Project

We will build a React Tutorial Application with Axios and Web API in that:

Each Tutorial has id, title, description, published status.
We can create, retrieve, update, delete Tutorials.
There is a Search bar for finding Tutorials by title.

Here are screenshots of our React CRUD Application.

Create a Tutorial:

Retrieve all Tutorials:

Click on Edit button to update an item:

On this Page, you can:

change status to Published using Publish button
delete the item using Delete button
update the item details with Update button

Search Tutorials by title:

This React Client consumes the following Web API:

Methods	Urls	Actions
POST	/api/tutorials	create new Tutorial
GET	/api/tutorials	retrieve all Tutorials
GET	/api/tutorials/:id	retrieve a Tutorial by `:id`
PUT	/api/tutorials/:id	update a Tutorial by `:id`
DELETE	/api/tutorials/:id	delete a Tutorial by `:id`
DELETE	/api/tutorials	delete all Tutorials
GET	/api/tutorials?title=[keyword]	find all Tutorials which title contains `keyword`

Now look at the React components that we're gonna implement:

– The App component is a container with React Router. It has navbar that links to routes paths.

– TutorialsList component gets and displays Tutorials.
– Tutorial component has form for editing Tutorial's details based on :id.
– AddTutorial component has form for submission new Tutorial.

– These Components call TutorialDataService methods which use axios to make HTTP requests and receive responses.

Technology

Project Structure

I'm gonna explain it briefly.

package.json contains 5 main modules: react, typescript, react-router-dom, axios & bootstrap.
App is the container that has Router & navbar.
tutorial.type.ts exports ITutorialData interface.
There are 3 components: TutorialsList, Tutorial, AddTutorial.
http-common.ts initializes axios with HTTP base Url and headers.
TutorialDataService has methods for sending HTTP requests to the Apis.
