In this Hands-on with React and Ruby on Rails training course, expert author Jonathan Lebensold will teach you how to build a web application from setup to deployment with React and Ruby on Rails. This course is designed for users that already have experience with web development and scripting languages.You will start by learning about the Flux application pattern, including how to integrate Flux into React components, introduce ES6 with Ruby on Rails, and mitigate Flux JavaScript to Flux ES6. From there, Jonathan will teach you how to finalize the Flux architecture. This video tutorial also covers complex UI interactions in Flux and configuring NodeJS and Rails. Finally, you will learn about automated testing, including how to use code coverage, write model specs, and test Flux with RSpec.Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will be capable of designing and building your own web applications with React and Ruby on Rails. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.
