Introduction

This documentation outlines a comprehensive approach to structuring and managing React applications using a curated set of tools and best practices. By adhering to these guidelines, you can create scalable, maintainable, and efficient applications.

State Management

Zustand:

Purpose: Provides a simple and performant way to manage global application state.
Benefits:
- Clear and concise API.
- Efficient updates and performance optimizations.
- Easy integration with other parts of the application.
Example:

import create from 'zustand';

const useStore = create((set) => ({
  count: 0,
  increment: () => set((state) => ({ count: state.count + 1 })),
}));

React Query:

Purpose: Manages asynchronous data fetching and caching.
Benefits:
- Automatic data fetching and caching.
- Easy handling of loading, error, and success states.
- Built-in query invalidation and refetching.
Example:

import { useQuery } from 'react-query';

const fetchUsers = async () => {
  const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/users');
  return response.json();
};

const UsersList = () => {
  const { isLoading, isError, data, error } = useQuery('users', fetchUsers);

  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (isError) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;

  return (
    <ul>
      {data.map((user) => (
        <li key={user.id}>{user.name}</li>
      ))}
    </ul>
  );
};

Data Manipulation

Mutation:

Purpose: Handles state mutations triggered by user actions or API calls.
Benefits:
- Centralized mutation logic.
- Easy integration with React Query for optimistic updates.
Example:

import { useMutation } from 'react-query';

const createUser = async (userData) => {
  const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/users', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
    body: JSON.stringify(userData),
  });
  return response.json();
};

const CreateUserForm = () => {
  const [createUserMutation] = useMutation(createUser);

  const handleSubmit = (userData) => {
    createUserMutation(userData)
      .then(() => {
        // Handle success
      })
      .catch((error) => {
        // Handle error
      });
  };

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      {/* Form fields */}
      <button type="submit">Create User</button>
    </form>
  );
};

Table Management

TanStack Table:

Purpose: Provides a flexible and performant table component.
Benefits:
- Customizable and extensible.
- Supports large datasets and complex interactions.
- Integrates well with React Query for data fetching.
Example:

import { useTable } from 'tanstack/react-table';

const columns = [
  { header: 'Name', accessor: 'name' },
  { header: 'Email', accessor: 'email' },
];

const data = [
  { name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com' },
  // ...
];

const TableComponent = () => {
  const { getTableProps, getTableBodyProps, headerGroups, rows } = useTable({
    columns,
    data,
  });

  return (
    <table {...getTableProps()}>
      <thead>
        {headerGroups.map((headerGroup) => (
          <tr {...headerGroup.getHeaderGroupProps()}>
            {headerGroup.headers.map((column) => (
              <th {...column.getHeaderProps()}>{column.render('Header')}</th>
            ))}
          </tr>
        ))}
      </thead>
      <tbody {...getTableBodyProps()}>
        {rows.map((row) => (
          <tr {...row.getRowProps()}>
            {row.cells.map((cell) => (
              <td {...cell.getCellProps()}>{cell.render('Cell')}</td>
            ))}
          </tr>
        ))}
      </tbody>
    </table>
  );
};

Component Libraries

Radix UI:

Purpose: Provides a collection of headless UI components.
Benefits:
- Customizable and flexible.
- Focuses on core functionality without styling.
- Well-integrated with accessibility standards.
Example:

import { Menu } from '@radix-ui/react-menu';

const MenuComponent = () => {
  return (
    <Menu>
      <Menu.Button>Open Menu</Menu.Button>
      <Menu.Items>
        <Menu.Item>Item 1</Menu.Item>
        <Menu.Item>Item 2</Menu.Item>
      </Menu.Items>
    </Menu>
  );
};

Tailwind CSS:

Purpose: Utility-first CSS framework.
Benefits:
- Rapid development and styling.
- Consistent and predictable styling.
- Easily customizable.
Example:

<div class="bg-blue-500 text-white p-4">
  Hello, world!
</div>

Form Management

Formik with Yup:

Purpose: Handles form state, validation, and submission.
Benefits:
- Simplified form management.
- Declarative validation rules.
- Easy integration with other libraries.
Example:

import { useFormik } from 'formik';
import * as Yup from 'yup';

const validationSchema = Yup.object({
  email: Yup.string().required('Email is required').email('Invalid email'),
  password: Yup.string().required('Password is required'),
});

const LoginForm = () => {
  const { handleSubmit, handleChange, values, errors, touched } = useFormik({
    initialValues: { email: '', password: '' },
    validationSchema,
    onSubmit: (values) => {
      // Handle form submission
      console.log(values);
    },
  });

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
      <label htmlFor="email">Email:</label>
      <input
        type="email"
        id="email"
        name="email"
        value={values.email}
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {errors.email && touched.email && <div>{errors.email}</div>}

      <label htmlFor="password">Password:</label>
      <input
        type="password"
        id="password"
        name="password"
        value={values.password}
        onChange={handleChange}
      />
      {errors.password && touched.password && <div>{errors.password}</div>}

      <button type="submit">Submit</button>
    </form>
  );
};

TypeScript

Purpose: Statically typed superset of JavaScript.
Benefits:
- Improved code quality and maintainability.
- Early detection of errors.
- Better type safety and code completion.
