This book is designed to be a resource that provides a set of tools and techniques to successfully navigate the challenges of building large-scale, maintainable, and scalable jаvascript web applications using React. Many of the ideas apply more broadly. In the first half of the book, we delve into the essentials, adopting a practical, example-led strategy. We start with the basics of understanding how software complexity can be managed before addressing key concepts such as design systems, data fetching, and state management, ensuring you understand how to structure and scale your React applications effectively. After closing the first part, we explore other topics like translation and internationalization (i18n), and how code folders and files can be neatly organized. In the second half of the book, we dive into more sophisticated areas necessary for full-scale application development. Here, we tackle the challenges of personalization, A/B testing, scalable web architecture, and caching strategies. You’ll learn how to approach technical migrations, ensuring that your application remains cutting-edge and maintainable. Finally, we conclude by discussing the advantages TypeScript provides in making React code “safe” and the importance of testing.

Data graphics are used extensively to present information. Understanding graphics is a lot about understanding the data represented by the graphics, having a feel not just for the numbers themselves, the reliability and uncertainty associated with them, but also for what they mean. This book presents a practical approach to data visualisation with real applications front and centre. The first part of the book is a series of case studies, each describing a graphical analysis of a real dataset. The second part pulls together ideas from the case studies and provides an overview of the main factors affecting understanding graphics. There is a range of different software systems for drawing graphics and everyone has to decide for themselves which one(s) they want to use. Getting details right may be easy with one software and difficult with another. New software releases may provide new options and sometimes substantial improvements. How exactly the graphics are drawn is not important, what the graphics look like and whether they achieve the aims they are intended to is. This book is primarily about how to interpret graphics, not so much about how to draw them. The graphics in this book have all been drawn with R. Other software could be used to draw the same or similar graphics; in some cases, it might be easier, in others harder. Use the software that suits you best. The R code for the book can be found in the gitbook version on the web. You will need to have some knowledge and experience of working with R (R Core Team) and the group of R packages known as the Tidyverse. Some users prefer base R for drawing their graphics and may use packages such as lattice and vcd.
