Prerequisites

• You should be experienced with useState, useEffect, and useRef.

Pre-workshop Resources

Here are some resources you can read before taking the workshop to get you up to speed on some of the tools and concepts we'll be covering:

• Should I useState or useReducer?
• How to Implement useState with useReducer
• useEffect vs useLayoutEffect
• Imperative vs Declarative Programming

If you have trouble with any of these, learn more about the PATH environment variable and how to fix it here for windows or mac/linux.
