Getting Going with React, Part II: On to Development

part one here | completed portfolio site redesign here Rather than jumping into a full web application, I decided to start small with something I could finish in one sitting. I already had designed my portfolio site to use card-like visual components for each project. Having read over this article on thinking in React, I figured a rebuild would be a natural fit. Step one was to dump all of the content into a JSON file, which I could use instead of an actual database.

Getting Going with React

Part I: Before I Typed a Single Curly Brace or Semicolon When I first saw some JSX code in a tutorial on React, I immediately poo-pooed the whole library: “What is that, HTML in JavaScript?
