Breaking Down Your React App

March 2019 Edition

Presentation for the eBay Frontend Conference, San Jose, USA, 25th March 2019.

Abstract

There’s magic in every new beginning – building a new web app on a green field is every developer’s dream. A dream that can turn into a nightmare as the codebase grows, matures and finally becomes unmanageable.

React is based on the concept of components. The idea is to compose your application of independent building blocks that you can easily reuse or replace with better ones. If you embrace this idea, you can keep your platform tidy and maintainable. If you don’t – well, you can write React spaghetti code just as easily as you can write jQuery spaghetti code.

Patrick talks about his team’s constant effort to “componentize all the things”, to find best practices, strategies and patterns to constantly improve the code base.

You’ll take away hands-on advice from real-world experience, to help you make your own code a little better every day, too!
