Join Kent C. Dodds for "React Server Components and Actions"

2024-11-20

The problem statement

The React component model is powerful, but there's always room to push it further.

Using brand new features can be daunting (especially low-level features), but understanding them can give you a head start.

While you just play around with frameworks that implement these features, diving deep into newer APIs allows you to grasp the underlying mechanics and make informed decisions.

To effectively use your abstractions, you need to understand the layers beneath. This workshop will equip you with the knowledge to leverage React Server Components and Actions in any React app.

At the end of this workshop you'll be able to do all of these things yourself.

Here's why you should register for the workshop.

01.React Element Serialization
Learn how React serializes React elements to send them to the client.
02.Client and Server Components
Learn the relationship between client and server components and how their module graphs interact to create a seamless user experience.
03.Streaming Serialized React Elements
Discover how to stream serialized React elements from the server to the client to improve performance and user experience.
04.Form Submissions to Server Actions
Master the technique of submitting forms directly to server actions, streamlining the process and enhancing security.
05.Managing Pending State
Understand how to manage pending states for server actions to ensure a smooth and responsive user experience.
06.Routing and Navigation
Build out a solid foundation for routing and navigation to get updated server components.

The topics we will be covering.

This is what we will talk about.

Required experience

You should have experience with these JavaScript features. This is definitely a very advanced workshop, so you should be very comfortable with React as well.

Important Note

Depending on the questions asked during the workshop, or necessary changes in the material, the actual content of the workshop could differ from the above mentioned topics.

What to expect from a Kent C. Dodds workshop

My primary goal is retention. If you can't remember what I've taught you, then the whole experience was a waste of our time.

With that in mind, we'll follow the teaching strategy I've developed over years of teaching (learn more about my teaching strategy here).

The short version is, you'll spend the majority of time working through exercises that are specifically crafted to help you experiment with topics you may have never experienced before. I intentionally put you into the deep end and let you struggle a bit to prepare your brain for the instruction.

Based on both my personal experience and scientific research around how people learn, this is an incredibly efficient way to ensure you understand and remember what you're learning. This is just one of the strategies I employ to improve your retention. I think you'll love it!

I'm excited to be your guide as we learn together!

Don't just take my word for it.

What others have to say

I can't say enough positive things about Epic React. I've not only improved so many gaps I've had with React but have finally found how I learn best, well, Kent figured it out with how he created this course. After the Epic React I felt confident enough to begin freelancing and just shipped my first client site!

You can call me an Epic React 🥑 (Advocate), there is no better React course around. Kent's approach to teaching is the one that resonates the most with me. The pacing is amazing and he really focus on practice.

This course helped me understand React at a much deeper level. It builds up in the fundamentals and progress extremely well into the advanced topics. Best course investment I made to date.

The confidence and the solid concepts that I ve learned in EpicReact made me land my first react job this month. I nailed the technical interview and felt so grateful to Kent! Thanks my friend!
