Since I made this great experience, I wanted to give the community this hands on tutorial, which will guide people to get started in React + Redux with a compelling real world application - a SoundCloud client.Īt the end of this tutorial you can expect to have a running React + Redux app, which consumes the SoundCloud API ( What's an API?). Professionally I grew with the code base, but also got an entry point into the open source community by providing a larger code base example for beginners in the React + Redux world.

Being both a passionate SoundCloud consumer and producer, it felt compelling for me to do my own SoundCloud client in React + Redux. It took me some weeks to implement the SoundCloud Client FaveSound. We were highly aware of the change coming with the React environment.Īgain in the early days of 2016 I wanted to see this hyped paradigm shift in its natural environment (React and its flux successor Redux) with a hands on side project.

Back in 2015 we already adopted our own flux architecture in the Angular world with the usage of stores and an unidirectional data flow. Since we are using it in a quite large code base, we know a lot about its flaws. In my company we relied heavily on Angular 1 at this point. Several of my colleagues used it in side projects and on a theoretical level I could participate in the discussions.

I read tons of articles about React and its environment, especially Redux, so far. In the beginning of 2016 it was time for me to deep dive into the ReactJs world.
