An Introduction to React for Publishers - Learn Front-End Development Through an Online Shopping Mall Project

Can you work with HTML/CSS, but find React difficult?

A First Step into React for Web Publishers! From Building a Responsive Online Store to Deployment

Can you create web pages with HTML and CSS and know some JavaScript, but feel overwhelmed about where to start with React?

New concepts such as components, Props, State, and Hooks may feel unfamiliar.

This course is designed for those who want to learn React based on their existing web publishing experience.

Starting with familiar HTML/CSS, you will learn React’s core syntax and ultimately complete a fully functional, responsive shopping mall website.

Rather than simply following syntax and examples, you’ll experience the React development process by implementing the website’s entire interface yourself.

🛒 First, check out the project you’ll complete!

By the end of the course, you will have completed a responsive shopping mall website with features including a product list, search and filtering, sorting, and pagination.

Experience the completed shopping mall project firsthand

Explore the project yourself to preview the features you’ll implement in this course.

Key Features to Implement

• Product List: Display product data fetched from an external JSON API using React components

• Product filtering: Explore products using various criteria such as category, brand, and price

• Product sorting: Sort the product list according to the desired criteria

• Pagination: Display product data across multiple pages

• Responsive web: Design the screen to fit both PC and mobile environments

• Website Deployment: Publish the completed project using Vercel

In this course, you’ll put React’s core concepts—components, Props, State, events, and list rendering—into practice.

🎯 Recommended for those who:

1. Web publishers who want to transition from HTML/CSS to React

Those who want to learn component-based React development based on their existing web publishing skills

2. Those who have studied React syntax but find it difficult to build projects

Those who understand each syntax but are unsure how to combine and apply them in real-world websites

3. Those who want to expand their skills into frontend development

Those who want to go beyond building static web pages and learn how to work with data and implement user interactions

4. Those who need a React portfolio project

Those who want to gain experience implementing and deploying a real e-commerce website from scratch

Course Highlights ✨

• Publisher-friendly explanations: Naturally connect React concepts to the way you already think about HTML and CSS

• Hands-on project-focused: Master React by building a shopping mall UI yourself

• Complete your portfolio: Provides a finished project you can use right away for your job search

💡 What will you learn?

STEP 01. Understanding React from a Publisher’s Perspective

Learn why to learn React and the differences between it and traditional web publishing methods.

• Comparing Traditional HTML/CSS/JavaScript with the React Development Approach

• Setting Up a React Development Environment Using Vite

• Understanding JSX Syntax and Components

• Passing Data Using Props

• Implementing Dynamic UIs Using State and Events

STEP 02. Applying Existing Web Publishing Skills to React

Expand your familiar HTML/CSS writing experience into React component development.

• Display the appropriate screen based on the situation with conditional rendering

• Rendering repeated elements using map and key

• Using CSS Modules and Global Styles

• Image and icon management

• Resolving Common Errors That Frequently Occur During Development

STEP 03. Implementing a Responsive Shopping Mall with React

Apply what you have learned so far to an actual shopping mall UI.

• Building a Shared Header and Menu

• Creating a Reusable Product Card Component

• Fetch product data and display it as a list

• Implementing a UI using events and state management

• Responsive design that considers various screen sizes

Rather than simply creating the end product, we focus on the process of converting web publishing work into a React project.

STEP 04. Implementing the Features Required for an Actual Online Store

Implement product browsing features using React’s data processing and state management capabilities.

• Integrating Product Data Using a JSON API

• Filtering by category, brand, and price criteria

• Product Sorting

• Implementing Pagination

• State management fundamentals using the Context API

Check how React’s core syntax is used in an actual project while implementing each feature.

STEP 05. Deploying the Completed Project

Conduct a final review and deploy the shopping mall website you created.

• Review the project's complete code and structure

• Review the Implemented Features

• Deploying a Website Using Vercel

• Explore the Direction of Your Next Frontend Learning Steps

✅ After completing the course, you will be able to do the following:

• You can apply your existing HTML/CSS-based web publishing experience to React development.

• You will understand core concepts such as JSX, components, props, and state.

• You can build webpages with reusable React components.

• You can display and process data fetched through an API on the screen.

• You can implement practical features such as product filtering, sorting, and pagination.

• You can create and deploy responsive React websites.

Ultimately, you will have a React shopping mall project that you implemented yourself as a completed portfolio piece.

Key Learning Content and Features📚

Practical, work-style course 📘

Rather than simply learning React syntax, you will implement the entire main page of a website as if it were a real project. As you build the project, the course proceeds by teaching you how to write the HTML structure needed for implementation based on a design, how to write CSS styles that match the design, and how to write scripts according to the required functionality.

Creating and Implementing a React Project 📘

Create a project using React, then implement it using HTML, CSS, and React (JavaScript).

Implementing filtering and sorting 📘

Based on what you learned in the React basics section, retrieve product information and display the products through list rendering (map). Implement filtering and sorting based on conditions in the displayed product list.

Implement Pagination 📘

From the displayed product list, display the designated products according to the conditions, and when a button is clicked, display the products on that page.

Responsive Design Implementation 📘

Use media queries to adjust the number of products displayed according to various devices.
