Introduction to Redux

Setting up a React-Redux Application

It is easy to set up a Redux-based React application using the React-Redux template. cd into an appropriate location and use the following command to create a directory containing a base project and template for React-Redux applications: npx create-react-app my-app --template redux.

It will create a 'my-app' folder containing the project files.

The template can also be found on GitHub.

We can then cd into the 'my-app' folder and start the test server:

cd my-app

npm start

It will either automatically open this page in your default browser, or you can visit the URL 'localhost:3000':

You can play around with the app to understand how it works. The code will be explained in the later chapters.

Also, you can use the codesandbox window below. Sliding from the left edge will reveal the code. After that, you can tap on the three lines at the top left corner to access all project files.

3. Redux in Practice

In the previous section we looked at the basic concepts. In this section we use those basic concepts to understand some more complicated concepts and the structure of a Redux application. In the end we will also look at the Counter application to put together all the pieces of our knowledge together.
