Project Instructions

1) Use React to build your application’s UI. Remember that composition is key. It’s rarely a mistake to break a component into smaller pieces. Look for opportunities to reuse your components.

2) We recommend using Create React App to generate your submission since it's the easiest way to ensure you have everything the project reviewer will need to install and run your app.

3) By walking through the Planning Stage and the Coding Stage of the Chirper Project, we’ve given you a useful template for building Redux applications. We recommend using this template for building your “Would You Rather?” Project. Remember that planning your project and its architecture before starting to code will save you a lot of debugging time later on!

4) Use Redux to manage your application state. For this application, most of the application’s state should be managed by Redux. You may use component state to handle form input fields and controlled components. Otherwise, the rest of the state for your application should be controlled by your reducers.

5) While the focus (and specification) of this project is based on functionality rather than styling, please ensure that your app is presentable and easy to navigate.

6) Please carefully test your app against the rubric to make sure all of the rubric requirements are met. Your project must meet all of the rubric criteria in order to pass.

Step 1

Before submitting, please verify that your project:

1. Meets specification according to the project rubric.
2. Includes all of the files necessary to install and launch your web application on a local web server. For files that include JSX, please refrain from using the .jsx extension (you can prefer .js). You can assume that your reviewer will have npm installed on their machine.
3. Adheres to our HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Git style guidelines.

Step 2

If you choose to develop your project in your Workspace, you can submit directly from your Workspace. When you're ready to submit, just click the "Submit Project" button.

If you choose to develop on your local machine, you will need to:

1. Push your project to GitHub, making sure to push the master branch.
2. On the project submission page choose the option "Submit with GitHub"
3. Select the repository for this project (you may need to connect your GitHub account first).

Sample Project

We encourage you to get creative with your projects by adding additional functionality and/or styling (after you've ensured that the project meets all of the specifications in the rubric)! Here's an example:
