Get Started with React

React is a widely used JavaScript library for easily making interactive web UIs, maintained by Meta and used all over the web for huge websites including even Facebook.

In this workshop, Haoyang Liu, a HackSoc member, will be giving us an introduction to React! This will be great for anyone who knows the basics of JavaScript and wants to get into web development. They will go over the creation of a SPA from scratch, showing how to use the library to build a lottery game.

Also, Microsoft Learn Student Ambassador (MLSA) will be giving out some cool prizes to some people who attend so come along for that!

This will be in A07, Comp Sci on Tuesday 15 November, starting around 7pm. You may want to install React on your computer in advance, but we can show you how to do that at the start of the workshop otherwise!
