React and APIs - Full Tutorial - Hacker News API Application

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Learn how to use APIs with React in this intermediate tutorial. We're going to be creating a small application in React that calls the Hacker News API. We'll be looking at React memo, Axios (to make API calls), styled components, and finally we will test our work using React Testing Library. Once we have done all this we will run our application through Lighthouse (a browser extension) that allows us to test for accessibility, performance and so much more. We will be making 500+ automated API calls in this application, and I want to show you how to use memo with React so that we can avoid making multiple network calls if we already have the data. - Code: https://github.com/karlhadwen/newsreader - Video by Karl Hadwen. https://github.com/karlhadwen/newsreader - Video by Karl Hadwen.

Not a good tutorial at all. Leaves explanations of most of the things, and is outdated as well. If someone is an expert, they wouldn't need this tut, but if they are not, this tut is not for you. Poor. Here are some of the lines from the tut = -I am taking this from the template, you don't need to do this, I don't want to get into detail of this-, -I am going to delete that, delete that (figure out by watching carefully what is that)-, -I am calling it containers but it's not actually a container, it's just a component, I am calling it .. (what!? why? thank you for intentionally confusing people!)-.

Yo mate! Amazing content.
Could you please tell us your extensions / plugin setup?
Your visual studio code looks amazing, and I'm sure more than one wonders about what extensions you are using for your setup.
Would be amazing to know some of the extensions you are using or you think are useful.
Thanks a lot mate, hope we see you again on freeCodeCamp!

Great tutorial, it was really useful to see you debugging. I could not understand the testing part, though...hopefully freeCodeCamp will include more material about React testing!

Just finished Javascript fundamentals (as in how things work under the hood, e.g the 'this' keyword)...learning currently so this is going to help out a lot!

Can this api method, be used to any kind of API ? or is it -bound- to hackernews :) - hope it makes sense what I am asking.
