Typing dates manually often leads to errors, especially when different formats like MM/DD/YYYY and DD/MM/YYYY are in play. That’s where a date picker component becomes incredibly useful. In React, the most popular library for this task is react-datepicker. Over the years, I’ve used it in many projects: from scheduling apps to employee onboarding systems, and … Read more >>
I realized that visualizing tasks on a timeline was not as simple as I expected when I first started managing projects in React. I had deadlines, dependencies, and milestones to manage, but looking at plain lists in tables wasn’t cutting it. That’s when I turned to a Gantt chart. A Gantt chart provides a clear … Read more >>
Working with React for more than a decade has given me plenty of chances to experiment with both class components and functional components. When Hooks were introduced, I immediately loved how simple they made state management and side effects. But in real-world projects, I often had to deal with older codebases full of class components. … Read more >>
Debugging React can sometimes feel like chasing shadows. I still remember one of my first React projects where I was stuck for hours because a simple component refused to render. No error messages, no warnings, just a blank screen. Over the years, I’ve run into this issue multiple times, both in personal projects and while … Read more >>
Building React applications over a decade ago, one of the most common requests from clients was to add a search feature.

In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through what Pure Components are, how they work, and how you can use them in your own React … Read more >>
When I first started working with React, one of the challenges I faced was figuring out how to trigger a function in a child component directly from the parent. This scenario comes up more often than you’d expect. For example, imagine a dashboard where a parent has a button to refresh reports, but the actual … Read more >>
Working on a client project, I needed to display thousands of rows of employee data in a table. The challenge was that the table had to be fast, interactive, and easy to filter. At first, I tried building a simple table with HTML and React. But it quickly became slow and unmanageable when the data … Read more >>
I was working on a React project for a US-based client, and I ran into a situation where one faulty component crashed the entire app. The problem was clear—React needed an error boundary. But error boundaries were originally designed for class components, and I mostly use functional components. After a bit of research and trial-and-error, … Read more >>
Recently, I was working on a React project where I needed to test a dashboard component.The dashboard relied on several child components, and I wanted to isolate the parent logic without worrying about the child implementations. The issue is… when you render the full component tree in tests, it often makes debugging harder. So, mocking … Read more >>
