Login functionality React Native

HelpMichaelCode — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 19:13:25 +0000

Hi guys, I wanna implement a login & signup functionality in React Native but most of the source I find online is Class Components. I would prefer to do it with Functional Components as I've been coding that way since I started using React Native. Do you guys know any links that I can follow through with this?

Is react native only used for UI experience ?

HelpMichaelCode — Wed, 07 Oct 2020 23:20:43 +0000

So based on my research on react native which I haven't heard of, my assumptions or some what small knowledge of it is that, it is only used for user interface experience. You can't really use this technology by itself when building a mobile application from the ground up?

setTimeouts inside a for loop

HelpMichaelCode — Mon, 17 Aug 2020 10:33:28 +0000

So I've encountered a problem that I've been trying to solve for a week now... Say I have a setTimeout inside a for loop. Inside the setTimeout function I have -> setTimeout(callback, timer, parameters of the callback). My problem is that, the values of the parameters aren't always the values that I am expecting and it seems to be that their values are always getting overwritten on each execution. My question is, how can I avoid this in a way where the values of the parameters aren't overwritten. I know this has something to do with scope but I'm not too sure how to approach it or do it.

Red, Green and Refactor in TDD

HelpMichaelCode — Sun, 24 May 2020 10:20:52 +0000

I’m new to this concept of TDD and usually what other developers would do is write up their functionality and write up a unit test afterwards. My question is, what’s the difference between writing test first following the red, green and refactor pattern and writing code first then testing it.

Dependency Injection

HelpMichaelCode — Tue, 12 May 2020 22:13:10 +0000

I can’t seem to get my head around dependency injection in ASP .Net Core.. Like I know what it is but I can’t seem to think of a simple use case for it in my head. Can someone give like a simple example? Plus, it mentioned that whenever you’re injecting a dependency, you shouldn’t use the ‘new’ keyword but instead pass it into a constructor. Why?
