React provides are a powerful paradigm for creating UI applications with JavaScript. TypeScript can greatly increase the maintainability of React applications by opening up syntax for self-documenting code.

In this course, we will cover how to set up a React application with TypeScript and use TypeScript for React applications


You get excellent developer experience when using TypeScript with React. This is better when compared to many other frameworks that work off of simple template strings because JSX is embedded within TypeScript.

In this lesson we give a demonstration of the some of the powerful refactorings and type checks enabled by using TypeScript with React.

`find references` is the simple command that finds all the references.

This lessons shows these generic parameters and `React.Component` in action.

Create stateful React Components using TypeScript

In this lesson we look at how to create a React Component package using TypeScript.

Creating a React Package is very similar to creating any other TypeScript Node package and we demonstrate that here.

Publish a React component with TypeScript

In this lesson we test the functionality of a React components using Jest and Ezyme.

Test React components and dom using Enzyme

Cypress is an E2E testing tool designed specifically to be easy to use for frontend developers. In this lesson we test the functionality of a React application using Cypress.
