Résumé

TLDRThe video introduces CodeSandbox, an online compiler and development environment, particularly effective for working with React applications. It streamlines the setup process, eliminating the need for local installations and setups like npm start for React. By signing up with a GitHub account, users can quickly begin using CodeSandbox. It provides various templates including React, Vanilla JS, Node.js, and TypeScript, allowing users to start projects swiftly using their chosen template. The platform supports adding dependencies easily through a straightforward interface. CodeSandbox also facilitates sharing and collaboration by allowing users to fork projects and share links with others. It features a file management system similar to typical development environments, where users can view and edit files like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Real-time changes are reflected in both small and large preview windows, with access to a console and React developer tools for debugging. CodeSandbox not only supports running code online but also allows projects to be exported for local development. The tool is highly recommended for quick prototyping and collaboration due to its ease of use and functionality.

  • 00:00:00
    hello and welcome back guys in this
  • 00:00:03
    video we will see what is code sandbox
  • 00:00:06
    so in order to get up and running pretty
  • 00:00:09
    much quickly and straight away I want to
  • 00:00:11
    introduce you to something called sand
  • 00:00:13
    code sandbox as you all can see I am on
  • 00:00:15
    this website called code
  • 00:00:17
    sandbox.io this is like an online
  • 00:00:19
    compiler that we
  • 00:00:22
    we have for other languages like C plus
  • 00:00:25
    plus Java and other languages so
  • 00:00:27
    basically it takes care
  • 00:00:30
    of all this setup so that we can start
  • 00:00:33
    up right away so we do not have to
  • 00:00:35
    go ahead and do this npm start again and
  • 00:00:39
    we do not have to create an
  • 00:00:41
    react application again and again
  • 00:00:44
    in order to avoid that we can use this
  • 00:00:46
    code sandbox all you have to do is to
  • 00:00:49
    just sign up with GitHub account or just
  • 00:00:51
    you can just use it in this way and you
  • 00:00:54
    are you just have to press create
  • 00:00:56
    sandbox
  • 00:01:00
    here we can create a Sandbox sandbox is
  • 00:01:03
    just like uh we are creating the react
  • 00:01:05
    application
  • 00:01:07
    think it in that way so we have
  • 00:01:10
    different templates we have react we
  • 00:01:12
    have vanilla we have
  • 00:01:14
    node.js also we have free react we have
  • 00:01:17
    type script and stuff now in this course
  • 00:01:20
    of course we'll be seeing about react so
  • 00:01:21
    that is the reason we will use this
  • 00:01:23
    react template
  • 00:01:25
    so this will basically set up everything
  • 00:01:28
    that I've shown you in the previous
  • 00:01:29
    video
  • 00:01:31
    this will do all of the npm start stuff
  • 00:01:34
    and it will be we will we can basically
  • 00:01:36
    start off like very quickly without even
  • 00:01:40
    taking tension about D
  • 00:01:42
    setup and all the mumbo jumbo thing that
  • 00:01:45
    we do all that npm start and moving this
  • 00:01:48
    and that
  • 00:01:50
    now we can use the
  • 00:01:52
    code editor as well but in order in
  • 00:01:55
    order to share the code as you all can
  • 00:01:57
    see when uh before that I'll just show
  • 00:02:00
    you what is this thing over here we have
  • 00:02:02
    all the files as you all can see we have
  • 00:02:04
    public we have index.html file when I
  • 00:02:07
    open the react file we have index.html
  • 00:02:10
    file as well over here
  • 00:02:12
    same file will be over there
  • 00:02:15
    okay I'm sorry I'm gonna close this one
  • 00:02:17
    and uh open the Google Chrome yeah we
  • 00:02:20
    have this is like the this is where we
  • 00:02:23
    will have all the files when I open this
  • 00:02:25
    thing I will get all the files in the
  • 00:02:27
    SRC we will have app.js index.js
  • 00:02:30
    index.js and app.js now please do not
  • 00:02:34
    feel overwhelm I will be speaking about
  • 00:02:36
    all of these things in the print in the
  • 00:02:39
    next video
  • 00:02:40
    I will explain you about the structure
  • 00:02:42
    of this thing we will speak about
  • 00:02:44
    everything a lot so please do not fill
  • 00:02:47
    our well just stay with me now so as you
  • 00:02:50
    all can see we have SRC
  • 00:02:53
    we have SRC here as well but as you all
  • 00:02:55
    can see we have different
  • 00:02:58
    app.css we have different types of
  • 00:03:00
    stylings because in the react
  • 00:03:02
    application built in it gives this type
  • 00:03:05
    of application over here but the files
  • 00:03:07
    are pretty much the same
  • 00:03:10
    so over here when you see the
  • 00:03:13
    okay yeah when you see this thing
  • 00:03:15
    dependencies we have react react Dom and
  • 00:03:18
    we can also add dependencies that we
  • 00:03:20
    want suppose you want to add node
  • 00:03:23
    sorry
  • 00:03:24
    note we can add node so there are like
  • 00:03:27
    other if you want to enter any other
  • 00:03:29
    dependencies if you want to enter fetch
  • 00:03:32
    or maybe like got
  • 00:03:36
    so we can use that
  • 00:03:38
    we can just do it in just one click so
  • 00:03:40
    in order to speed up our process we will
  • 00:03:43
    be using this and also I'll be showing
  • 00:03:45
    you how to
  • 00:03:48
    share this thing all you have to do is
  • 00:03:50
    to go ahead and sign up with GitHub and
  • 00:03:54
    then you can press Fork over here so
  • 00:03:57
    that will fork in your drafts you can go
  • 00:04:00
    to your drafts and see the fox sandbox
  • 00:04:02
    here you can name anything you all want
  • 00:04:04
    here I will name something like
  • 00:04:07
    react uh first app
  • 00:04:12
    something like this so if I if I just
  • 00:04:15
    leave the
  • 00:04:17
    project in this way I can come back
  • 00:04:19
    again and continue from here now we can
  • 00:04:22
    also send our project I mean like use
  • 00:04:25
    this thing and set up our project inside
  • 00:04:28
    our inside locally I meant if you want
  • 00:04:31
    to set up everything locally we can also
  • 00:04:34
    export this file all you have to do is
  • 00:04:37
    to go to file and press export which we
  • 00:04:40
    will speak about in the next video in
  • 00:04:42
    the coming videos not in the next video
  • 00:04:44
    because here we will be spending most of
  • 00:04:46
    our time
  • 00:04:47
    so I'm just gonna reload this one
  • 00:04:52
    so this is like the page that we we will
  • 00:04:55
    build over here so when we open this
  • 00:04:58
    thing in the new window we will have a
  • 00:05:00
    very big window and here if I just go
  • 00:05:04
    ahead and
  • 00:05:05
    I'm just gonna close this Babel one and
  • 00:05:07
    if I just go ahead and change
  • 00:05:09
    in the app.js as you all can see in the
  • 00:05:12
    app.js if I change something like hello
  • 00:05:14
    my
  • 00:05:16
    hello world
  • 00:05:18
    my name is
  • 00:05:21
    saffron
  • 00:05:22
    let's save this thing as you all you can
  • 00:05:25
    see we will see this thing over here
  • 00:05:28
    so this is like a small window and this
  • 00:05:30
    is like a big window and here we have
  • 00:05:32
    console over here in order to see the
  • 00:05:34
    console logs and we have problems this
  • 00:05:38
    will give all the errors over here and
  • 00:05:39
    we have react developer tools this is
  • 00:05:41
    the react developer tools section so you
  • 00:05:45
    can use both of these things you can
  • 00:05:46
    either use just local
  • 00:05:49
    localhost to
  • 00:05:53
    work on your project but I
  • 00:05:55
    recommend you all to use this thing
  • 00:05:57
    because you can use this
  • 00:06:01
    use this link over here and you can send
  • 00:06:04
    it to your friends and family so that
  • 00:06:06
    you all can just show I'm sorry I just
  • 00:06:08
    put a yeah never mind that automatically
  • 00:06:11
    removed it for me so as you all you can
  • 00:06:14
    see we can use this link and send it to
  • 00:06:16
    your friends and family as well so we
  • 00:06:19
    have everything that we need
  • 00:06:21
    now in the next video we will see about
  • 00:06:23
    this DX GSX and we'll basically see the
  • 00:06:26
    structure of this whole react
  • 00:06:28
    application so for all that and more see
  • 00:06:30
    all there
