For this sequence of assignments, you will build an app using React. You can make any app you like, as long as it isn't a copy of a tutorial or book example. For example, you can use your app from the Express homeworks, or part of your project.

Part 1: A simple view

Write a very simple React app that will display a list of items/object. Over the next few assignments, you will be building up a "full" app that uses State and and an API. For this first part, you can use the simplifications listed below (which will make this assignment similar to the recipe example in the "React 3" video); or, you can skip directly to the "real" way of doing things. (The tradeoff is between a simpler first step, and avoiding having to rewrite part of your app later.) Specifically, for this first step, you may:

• Place all your components into one file (as opposed to having a separate file for each component).
• Place all of your data in a single array (as opposed to loading it from a file or API call).

You must:

• Use JSX
• Use props

Part 2: A complete view

Now complete the view so all CRUD operations work.

Add just enough styling so that the view doesn't look terrible. For example here, I just added some widths, and borders with rounded edges:

Part 3: Connect to API and Validate

Connect your view to a real API of your choice (Express, Rails, Firebug, etc.). Also, add validation so that bad data doesn't get entered into the DB. Both the client and the server should validate the data.

Important: Don't allow duplicate email addresses.

Part 4: Add Login/Session

Add the ability to log in to an app. You can satisfy this in one of three ways:

• This React app
• Your Express app
• Your project

You will need both a User table and sessions.

Submission

Just commit your code with the message [grade me x] (where x is the current part number). Please include a screen shot of your app in your commit.
