Modularize Your React Project!

If you do keep up with current events, you should know that functional programming is a topic of great interest in the javascript community. Devs want to build more predictable applications by composing functions and assembling components as single modules [entities] where each piece has its own responsibility. It’s the utmost modular model.

When it comes down to handling large applications with complex and wide codebases, it often involves teams of developers.

How do you handle such wide codebases?

Ladies and gentlemen, I present the solution:
Structure your codebase around the concept of modules. In this case, each module will have its own individual responsibilities. This approach is not new, but it's quite simple and effective. It involves breaking down your application into smaller, single-purpose business functions.

I've had the chance to work on a couple of large codebase projects and I strongly believe this is the best way to develop maintainable React applications.
