If you are a developer who is willing to enter web development as a front-end developer you must need React Js. Let me tell you about my web development history.

When I was a child I think about how the internet works? How do these websites work? What is the rocket science behind this? Lots of questions. But after my advanced level exams, I joined a programming class. There I learned about java as my first programming language. Then I learn python, C on myself.

After I came to the University I was thinking about “Mmmm Now it's time to learn new things”. So I choose Web development and I go through different courses on Udemy and Coursera. Here are the basic fundamentals that you need to learn in Web Development before entering React.

  1. HTML and CSS
  2. Javascript (DOM)
  3. Bootstrap
