React Getting Started

 React Getting Started

To get started with React, you'll need to follow these basic steps:

Install Node.js and NPM: React requires Node.js and NPM to be installed on your system. You can download and install Node.js from the official website: https://nodejs.org/en/. NPM (Node Package Manager) comes bundled with Node.js.

Create a new React project: Once you have Node.js and NPM installed, you can create a new React project using the create-react-app command-line interface (CLI). Open your terminal or command prompt and run the following command:

npx create-react-app my-app

This will create a new React project called my-app in a directory with the same name.

Start the development server: After creating the project, you can start the development server by navigating to the project directory and running the following command:

cd my-app

npm start

This will start a development server on port 3000 and open a new browser tab displaying your React app.

Edit the app: You can edit the src/App.js file to make changes to your React app. You can add new components, change the text on the page, and more.

Save your changes: As you make changes to your React app, the development server will automatically reload the page so you can see your changes in real-time. Once you're happy with your changes, save the files and commit them to your version control system (e.g., Git).
