Welcome, Developers!
Are you ready to dive into the world of ReactJS and CSS styling? In this article, we'll build a stylish Card App with React, featuring "Your," "All," and "Blocked" tabs for card management. Learn how to apply React components, hooks, and CSS styling to create a beautifully organized and visually appealing card experience. By the end, you'll have a well-designed card management app and a deeper understanding of React and CSS. Let's get started! 🚀👨💻
Pre-requisites:
- ReactJS
- CSS
- JSON
Functionalities:
- Display well designed list of cards with their details, including name, budget name, amount, frequence, expiry, spent, and balance.
- Cards in the app come in two varieties: "burner" and "subscription."
- Search cards using search by card name.
- Toggle between different tabs "Your," "All," and "Blocked" to view cards owned by the user, all cards, and blocked cards.
- Click on the filter button to toggle the visibility of the card type dropdown.
- Filter cards by card type using a dropdown menu.
- Add or Update Cards: If you want to add more cards or update the existing cards you can do that by defining another card or updating the existing card details in mockApiResponse.
- Delete Cards: If you want to remove the cards, you can do that by deleting the corresponding block of data in mockApiResponse .
Approach:
We will follow this approach for successfully building the application:
- Set Up: We will initiate the project with a React setup to create a solid foundation for our app.
- Implementation: We will start implementing our react components and rendering card information.
- Styling: Using CSS to style the components and make the app visually appealing.(App.css)
- Testing: Testing the application by running it locally, ensuring it works smoothly and all the functionalities are working correctly.
Steps to Create the Application:
Step 1 : Set up your React project with the following command in your preferred code editor (e.g., VSCode)
npx create-react-app cards
Step 2 : Navigate to your project folder
cd cards
Step 3 : Implement the code in the respective files as mentioned, such as App.js, App.css.
Step 4 : Create a folder Images and paste images for card types.
Project Structure:
- App.js: This is the main entry point, all the react code is implemented here to compose the user interface.
- App.css: This file contains design of the card App.
- Images: Create Images folder in the src directory which will have 2 images for representing and categorizing the cards as Burner and Subscription.
Steps to Run the Application:
Step 1: In your terminal, run the following command:
npm start
Step 2: Open your web browser and enter the following URL in the address bar:
