React helps you create and work on an app in just a few minutes. But learning how to put all the pieces together is hard. How do you validate a form? Or implement a complex multistep user action without writing messy code? How do you test your code? Make it reusable? Wire it to a backend? Keep it easy to understand? The React Cookbook delivers answers fast.Many books teach you how to get started, understand the framework, or use a component library with React, but very few provide examples to help you solve particular problems. This easy-to-use cookbook includes the example code developers need to unravel the most common problems when using React, categorized by topic area and problem.You'll learn how to:Build a single-page application in React using a rich UICreate progressive web applications that users can install and work with offlineIntegrate with backend services such as REST and GraphQLAutomatically test for accessibility problems in your applicationSecure applications with fingerprints and security tokens using WebAuthnDeal with bugs and avoid common functional and performance problems

The autobiography of the portrait artist David Griffiths, who was inspired to paint under the tutelage of his school art teacher, Elis Gwyn, after moving to Pwllheli to escape Hitler''s bombs on the banks of the Mersey.

The author was not supposed to go to war. He was told he was half an inch too short. But, determined to fight for king and country, he found a battalion that would take him and was soon on his way to the trenches of the Somme. This title presents a testament to one man's struggle to keep his humanity in the face of unimaginable violence.

Russia's 18th-century drive toward modernity and empire under Peter I and Catherine II is captured here. The author develops three themes: Russia's relationship to the West; the transformation of "Holy Russia" into a multinational empire; and the effects of modernizing Russia along western lines.

This work examines the Japanese Noh theatre historically, philosophically (with an evaluation of Zeami's treatises) and in respect of the Noh training. It includes a short play, "The Dove", which reflects the influence of the Noh theatre and provides references to its cultural source.

The book is distinctive in combining theoretical discussion on the role of networks, resources and social capital with fieldwork evidence and interviews with members of RCOs, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and statutory authorities. It critically examines the impact of dispersal and current legislative change on refugee communities and RCOs; explores the integrative role of RCOs; assesses the race relations framework in Britain and its effects on refugee organisations and provides a thorough and up-to-date literature review. Refugee community organisations and dispersal is essential reading for practitioners and policy makers, academics, researchers and students of social policy, social geography, sociology and politics. Members of NGOs working with refugees or in local government, community workers and members of refugee communities themselves will also be keenly interested in the book. Comparative issues raised by the research will be of direct interest to readers in other countries.

Looking for a reliable way to learn how to program on your own, without being overwhelmed by confusing concepts? Head First Programming introduces the core concepts of writing computer programs -- variables, decisions, loops, functions, and objects -- which apply regardless of the programming language. This book offers concrete examples and exercises in the dynamic and versatile Python language to demonstrate and reinforce these concepts. Learn the basic tools to start writing the programs that interest you, and get a better understanding of what software can (and cannot) do. When you're finished, you'll have the necessary foundation to learn any programming language or tackle any software project you choose.With a focus on programming concepts, this book teaches you how to:Understand the core features of all programming languages, including: variables, statements, decisions, loops, expressions, and operatorsReuse code with functionsUse library code to save time and effortSelect the best data structure to manage complex dataWrite programs that talk to the WebShare your data with other programsWrite programs that test themselves and help you avoid embarrassing coding errorsWe think your time is too valuable to waste struggling with new concepts. Using the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory to craft a multi-sensory learning experience, Head First Programming uses a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works, not a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.
