Overview

This isn't just any React practice project... this is a two-in-one. Not only will you practice building a React app, but you'll also be better prepared for your interviews so that you can land your dream job!

What you'll learn

  • Learn the mental framework necessary to dissect and solve problems commonly encountered in Frontend Engineering interviews.
  • Build and understand the complexities involved in creating a 'Star Rating' component, a seemingly simple yet intricately complex project.
  • Gain confidence in Frontend Engineering interviews by mastering efficient problem-solving strategies.
  • Apply the learned mental framework to tackle various components, enhancing your skills not only for interviews but also for real-world job scenarios.

Why Is This React Project Awesome?

Because it's not just a React practice project.

With the rising popularity of Frontend Engineering interviews, you'll want to understand how to efficiently problem solve. Even though these interviews sound scary, they don't have to be!

This project will help you go through the process to build your confidence. Plus you'll be able to use the mental framework taught for tackling any component, not only in your interviews but also in your job.

Wait... What's a Project?

One of the most common things we hear from students is: "I want to build more projects!"

We love hearing that, because building projects is really the best way to learn. And unique, challenging projects can really make your portfolio stand out for potential employers.

But also...it just feel so good when you actually build something real!

That's why we've created ZTM Projects. A collection of comprehensive portfolio and practice projects that you can use to advance your knowledge, learn new skills, build your portfolio, and sometimes even just have fun!
