Neat, thanks! I do use useContext, as far as I know the previous way to do it was to wrap children in a specific Context Consumer tag? Never quite understood the syntax of the old method haha

Okay nice, thank you!
Yeah, I use the value in a lot of deeply nested places, and it usually isn’t even just one value, but a set of filterModel, sortModel and paginationModel that are always used together but need their separate states. Directly passing those through parameters even just one or two levels down really messes with the readability the code. But yeah, if it’s just one-off states only used in one child I do pass them as regular parameters :)

PS: Hope this is the right place to ask! I don’t have a Stackoverflow account, and it’s not like I have actual problems with this method either. I’d just like to know if there’s problems with it that I don’t know about 😆
I used to mainly develop in Delphi before my company said “You’re doing React now, congrats!” and just sent me and other non-React developers off to build a whole new codebase by ourselves. Very interesting project and lots of lessons learned, but to this day there still are very few people at my company that actually know React, and even fewer people that know HTML. So there isn’t really anyone who’d see the code and could say “Oh, don’t do it like that”. But that way I also don’t really learn best practices, which is why I try to ask around 🫣

No worries, we really bad web developers have all switched to React long ago 😎 So no CSS here, just Material-UI’s “sx” attribute plastered over every single component.

Great read! I’m mainly a React developer and I can confirm that I have never heard about the <dialog> tag before! Damn, I even use that shadCN Dialog mentioned in the article lol

Ooh that looks good! Thank you so much, that definitely lessens my worry about iOS not cooperating at all haha

Side question, we all put Html, Css and JS as skills on our resume, right? How well do y’all actually know those? Would you be able to beat CSS Diner on the first try? How many different Html tags besides div have you actually used? Can you explain what an array reducer function does or how a Promise works?

I bookmarked another post from this community that might relate nicely!
It’s time for modern CSS to kill the SPA

Haven’t gotten to trying all the cool css stuff in my own projects yet, but it certainly sounds interesting :D

I don’t get the concept of “learning” a specific programming language, you can’t just sit down and learn the entire thing at once. You use it, google its weird quirks whenever you come across them and get better with it over time.
I’ve always been really language agnostic, which led to me being shifted into a Delphi team and then into a Typescript/React team. Didn’t know anything about those languages when I entered the team but someone who’s willing to just try their best can be a lot more desirable to a company than someone who thinks they can’t do something just because they didn’t spend time learning it “properly” first.

Also, might just be a regional thing, but the last time I went to one of those “I just finished university and want to network with companies” events, like 70% of the CS graduates were looking for Data Science positions. Seems like it’s quite the saturated market.
