@kulkarniankita9 1. Project structure
@kulkarniankita9 Directory structure index.js src auth index.js actions/epic/reducer/selector common components
button primaryButton/secondaryButton/tertiaryButton utils constants store storybook locale Modules
@kulkarniankita9 Challenges • A lot of shared context made it
difficult to share code Vertical slicing modules eg: auth, biometrics

@kulkarniankita9 Does Context replace redux?
@kulkarniankita9 Do you need redux?

context
@kulkarniankita9 Challenges • Context was used as a state management
solution When the app was small, this worked fine but not when it grew Look into a state management solution Examples: Redux, Apollo cache

@kulkarniankita9 Testing • Unit testing • React component testing: react-testing-library
• API data transformation layer testing • Integration testing • Automation testing
@kulkarniankita9 10. Forms are hard, use a library
@kulkarniankita9
@kulkarniankita9 Libraries used • Formik • redux-form
@kulkarniankita9 Example
