Start interactive tutorial
TicTacToe with React.js
Time to start building cool stuff, let's code our first game!
🌱 How to start this project
Do not clone this repository! We will be using a different template.
We recommend opening the react.js boilerplate, using a provisioning tool like Codespaces (recommended) or Gitpod. Alternatively, you can clone the GitHub repository on your local computer using the git clone command.
This is the repository you need to open or clone:
1$ git clone https://github.com/4GeeksAcademy/react-hello
💡 Important: Remember to create a new repository, update the remote (git remote set-url origin <your new url>), and upload the code to your new repository using add, commit and push.
📝 Instructions
Create a Tictactoe in React.js just like this one. Remember to follow the recommended workflow to start coding:
- Design your sitemap: How many pages/views?
- Designing your wireframe: What components and where?
- Start coding your components only rendering "Hello world" on each of them (to make sure they work).
- Create a list of all the possible user and system interactions (events) that occurs during runtime (for example: The user clicks on a button to start the game)
- Create a javascript function that will handle each of those events.
Console.logon each of those functions to make sure they are being called.- Continue... watch the video if you have any other doubts.
Concepts you will learn:
- State of the components (global variables)
- Props
- Render method
- The function for checking the winner is a great learning algorithm
