To teach myself React, I'm building a component library!

Hey!

I'm a big fan of Ant d, a React component library, and I've been learning React JS recently.

To teach myself how to build pretty much any type of React component, I am going to build my very own React component library.

Feedback?

Is there anything I should think about or consider before going too deep into building a component library?

Or maybe you just have some feedback on how I can build a component library similar to ant.design?

Leave a comment below.

    Yep. I would go higher level and build some templates based on Ant. That way you learn from the experts.

    By the end you have something you can use and share.

      Sooo agree with this 👍

  2. 2

    You need a design system first

    Awesome goal, Josh! Before you jump in, don’t go into it just to make a library.

    Think of a problem you can solve. For example, a navbar component library because usually to make one you have to combine multiple divs and flexboxes to make it work.
