What you should know
- [Instructor] Before we get started, there are a few concepts that would be very helpful for you to know, because I won't be mentioning them explicitly in this course, so let's just go over what those are real quick. The first thing is a basic knowledge of JavaScript syntax. Obviously, since in order to use React, you have to use a lot of JavaScript, it's going to be very helpful for you if you're already familiar with JavaScript's syntax, and if you're not, you're more than welcome to try and follow along anyway, mostly just because JavaScript syntax is fairly straightforward, but I would highly recommend that at some point you brush up on your JavaScript syntax by taking a basics course. Now, besides this, it would also be helpful for you to know a lot of the basics of React, or at least be familiar with basic React syntax since we'll obviously be using React pretty heavily in this course. Again, you're more than welcome to just follow along and learn as you go, but if you want to be more prepared, you can always go back and take a look at a basics course of React. And finally, since we'll be making some network requests in this course, it would also be helpful for you to have a basic knowledge of fundamental networking concepts. Things like making network requests, and basic terminology such as clients and servers. If you don't have this, once again, you're more than welcome to just continue on with the course. Just know that there may be certain things I'll say or do that you won't understand completely. So, now that we've discussed this, let's jump right in.
