Creating a React App Introduction. React is a user interface framework developed by Facebook. It has a quickly growing developer adoption rate and was ranked as the most loved language or technology in the 2019 Stackoverflow developer survey.This article will walk you through setting up your first React app and assumes you are familiar with text editors and command line navigation. Create-react-app allows you to bootstrap React applications with zero-configuration. There is no need to get involved too early in toolings with Webpack and Babel. If you are going to read 'The Road to React', you will use create-react-app as well. It's the simplest approach to learn React without worrying about all the tooling around it. # Stage all the current files git commit -m 'Upgrade react-native' # Save the current files in a commit. After you finish upgrading you may remove the.git directory. I have done all the changes but my app is still using an old version. These sort of errors are usually related to caching.

Visual Studio allows you to easily create a Node.js project and experience IntelliSense and other built-in features that support Node.js. In this tutorial for Visual Studio, you create a Node.js web application project from a Visual Studio template. Then, you create a simple app using React.
In this tutorial, you learn how to:
Before you begin
Here's a quick FAQ to introduce you to some key concepts.
What is Node.js?
Node.js is a server-side JavaScript runtime environment that executes JavaScript server-side.
What is npm?
npm is the default package manager for the Node.js. The package manager makes it easier for programmers to publish and share source code of Node.js libraries and is designed to simplify installation, updating, and uninstallation of libraries.
What is React?
React is a front-end framework to create a UI.
What is JSX?
JSX is a JavaScript syntax extension, typically used with React to describe UI elements. JSX code must be transpiled to plain JavaScript before it can run in a browser.
What is webpack?
webpack bundles JavaScript files so they can run in a browser. It can also transform or package other resources and assets. It is often used to specify a compiler, such as Babel or TypeScript, to transpile JSX or TypeScript code to plain JavaScript.
Prerequisites
Create a project
First, create a Node.js web application project.
Add npm packages
This app requires a number of npm modules to run correctly.
Add project files
In these steps, you add four new files to your project.
For this simple app, you add the new project files in the project root. (In most apps, you typically add the files to subfolders and adjust relative path references accordingly.)
Add app code
Configure webpack and TypeScript compiler options
In the previous steps, you added webpack-config.js to the project. Next, you add webpack configuration code. You will add a simple webpack configuration that specifies an input file (app.tsx) and an output file (app-bundle.js) for bundling and transpiling JSX to plain JavaScript. For transpiling, you also configure some TypeScript compiler options. This code is a basic configuration that is intended as an introduction to webpack and the TypeScript compiler.
Transpile the JSX
Create A New React App
Each time you make changes to app.tsx, you must rerun the webpack command. To automate this step, add a build script to transpile the JSX.
Add a build script to transpile the JSX
Starting in Visual Studio 2019, a build script is required. Instead of transpiling JSX at the command line (as shown in the preceding section), you can transpile JSX when building from Visual Studio.
Run the app
Set a breakpoint and run the appCreate React App Update
Set and hit a breakpoint in the client-side React code
In the preceding section, you attached the debugger to server-side Node.js code. To attach the debugger from Visual Studio and hit breakpoints in client-side React code, the debugger needs help to identify the correct process. Here is one way to enable this.
Prepare the browser for debugging
For this scenario, use either Microsoft Edge (Chromium), currently named Microsoft Edge Beta in the IDE, or Chrome.
Attach the debugger to client-side script
Next steps
Upgrading to new versions of React Native will give you access to more APIs, views, developer tools and other goodies. Upgrading requires a small amount of effort, but we try to make it straightforward for you.
Expo projects
Upgrading your Expo project to a new version of React Native requires updating the
react-native , react , and expo package versions in your package.json file. Please refer to this list to find out what versions are supported. You will also need to set the correct sdkVersion in your app.json file.
See the Upgrading Expo SDK Walkthrough for up-to-date information about upgrading your project. My sky app.
React Native projects
Because typical React Native projects are essentially made up of an Android project, an iOS project, and a JavaScript project, upgrading can be rather tricky. There's currently two ways for upgrading your React Native project: by using React Native CLI or manually with Upgrade Helper.
React Native CLI
The React Native CLI comes with
upgrade command that provides a one-step operation to upgrade the source files with a minimum of conflicts, it internally uses rn-diff-purge project to find out which files need to be created, removed or modified.
