React (strictly speaking, React.js) is a JavaScript library designed to help programmers create user interfaces (i.e., the parts of websites that react.) In the world of computer programming, libraries are repositories not of books, but of blocks of code that greatly ease the jobs of coders by providing them with ready-to-go sets of computer commands that spare them having to build an entire programming edifice from the ground up. If a coder needs a webpage to do something (for example, display a greeting to the user), the coder simply has to instruct the computer to pull up a React component that does it. Using these libraries is an incredible time-saver.
React isn’t the only library a Front-end Developer will have recourse to (for example, it doesn’t do much with client-side functionality), but it is probably the most fundamental. React is maintained by Meta (formerly Facebook), and its components appear in websites of all sizes, from those of the largest companies (Netflix and PayPal’s sites both use React) to those of individuals who put together simple websites using platforms like WordPress.
You can’t just learn React and start a career. There’s more that goes into the soup, and, without the rest of the ingredients, React is pretty much meaningless. Since it’s a JavaScript library, users will have to know JavaScript, and, to learn JavaScript, you’ll first need to know HTML and CSS. The four go together and form the recipe for a Front-end Developer. React is even used in some back-end procedures; thus, it’s a library that both Back-end Developers and Full Stack Developers need to know how to use.
Chicago, a major financial center and budding hotbed of tech startups, is fertile terrain for all types of web developers. The average annual salary for a Front-end Developer in the Windy City is $107,500, while Full Stack Developers are earning an average of $115,000 per year.
If you wish to learn React and live in Chicago, you’ll be able to find an in-person class at General Assembly, located on the Near North Side. Their React Class runs for 40 hours in the evenings and teaches students with a firm grasp of JavaScript (as well as HTML and the DOM, Document Object Model) how to make use of the library when creating websites.
Instead of taking a React class in a brick-and-mortar school, many people are opting for the highly sensible alternative of online learning. The advantages should be fairly obvious: going to school without having to go to school means that you’re spared a commute through Chicago at its busiest. Plus, you’ll be able to study in the comfort of your own space, without the inevitable distractions that come in classrooms. Students taking virtual classes are still able to interact with the teacher and with each other. Everyone is live online, and you can ask the instructor questions whenever necessary.
Noble Desktop, the originator of this tool, offers a variety of React classes, starting with a React Development Bootcamp. The bootcamp runs for ten weeks, two evenings per week, and teaches students how to employ React and React Native (a framework designed, roughly, to bring React.js to the development of mobile applications) to work hands-on to create several websites in the course of the class. If you need to be brought up to speed on JavaScript before tackling React, Noble also teaches a JavaScript Bootcamp (one month full-time or five months part-time). Another option would be Noble’s Full Stack Development Bootcamp (two months full-time; eight months part-time), which covers the full range of tools necessary for developers to program both the front and back ends of websites, including JavaScript and React.js.
Other React classes are taught by NYIM Training Centers. Also worth considering are the React courses at NYC Career Centers.
To be able to learn to use React, you’re going to require a solid knowledge of JavaScript, and one of the best ways to learn JavaScript is by attending a bootcamp. Bootcamps are intensive classes geared toward people seeking to obtain skills they can put to use on the job market as quickly as possible. Examples of JavaScript bootcamps in Chicago include General Assembly’s JavaScript course; an example of an online JavaScript bootcamp would be Noble Desktop’s JavaScript Development Certificate Program.
If your desire is to learn React as part of a larger spectrum of website development tools, you may be interested in front-end development bootcamps, which will focus on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, as well as some of the other JavaScript libraries. Or, if you wish to be more thorough, you should consider full-stack development bootcamps that will teach you how to program both halves of websites and equip you with the knowledge needed to begin a particularly lucrative career as a Full-Stack Developer.
Would you like to upskill your current team in using React? Noble Desktop can provide corporate React training available onsite or virtually to make that happen, starting with a voucher program that enables your staff to take any of Noble’s publicly scheduled classes. If you want something more directly tailored to your organization’s needs, Noble can also set up live classes with expert teachers at your location. It can also provide virtual training and bring its expert teachers to your office using Zoom, Google Meet, or another teleconferencing application. Please contact Noble Desktop’s corporate training department for further information.
