In windows, deleting node modules takes so much time and sometimes it makes my screen unresponsive. I googled for some solution and found the below:

Install a npm package called npkill with the command npm i -g npkill.
After installing from the terminal go to the directory from which we want to delete the node modules and type npkill.

The command prompt will list all the node modules and we can select the required folder.
After the secltion, you can press the Space key which will erase the directory in which the cursor is located.

To exit, q, or Ctrl + c.

In CSS modules, CSS class names and animation names are scoped locally by default. In React you can use the file naming conversion as [file name].module.css. This let the React and Webpack know that you are using CSS Modules.

Importing the CSS in the file.

import nameyoulike from './name.modules.css';

Calling the style in the file.

<button className={styles.button} />

React and ReactDOM are two distinct libraries that are commonly used together in the development of web applications with React.

React is a JavaScript library focused on building user interfaces. It follows a declarative approach, where developers define what the UI should look like based on the current state of the application. React then efficiently updates and renders components as the state changes. Its design emphasizes flexibility and efficiency, making it a popular choice for developing both web and mobile applications.

ReactDOM, on the other hand, serves as a bridge between React and the DOM (Document Object Model). The DOM is a hierarchical structure representing the HTML content of a web page. ReactDOM provides a set of methods that enable React components to be rendered and updated within the DOM. It ensures that the user interface is synchronized with the underlying HTML structure.

In summary, React is a library for building user interfaces, while ReactDOM handles the interaction with the DOM, rendering React components onto the web page. Although they are often used together, they serve different purposes and can function independently of each other.

Your components will often need to display different things depending on different conditions. In React, you can conditionally render JSX using JavaScript syntax like if statements, &&, and ? : operators.

&& operator

{ isYes && <A />}

? : operator

isYes ? Yes() : No()

• In React, you control branching logic with JavaScript.
• You can return a JSX expression conditionally with an if statement.
• You can conditionally save some JSX to a variable and then include it inside other JSX by - using the curly braces.
• In JSX, {cond ? <A /> : <B />} means “if cond, render <A />, otherwise <B />.
• In JSX, {cond && <A />} means “if cond, render <A />, otherwise nothing”.
• The shortcuts are common, but you don’t have to use them if you prefer plain if.

Lifting state up in react means moving data from a child component to some parent component either to use it there or pass it some other child component.

• When you want to coordinate two components, move their state to their common parent.
• Then pass the information down through props from their common parent.
• Finally, pass the event handlers down so that the children can change the parent’s state.
• It’s useful to consider components as “controlled” (driven by props) or “uncontrolled” (driven by state).

A component with its own local state is often referred to as uncontrolled.

In contrast, a component is considered controlled when its key data and behavior are managed externally through props, rather than relying on its own local state. This approach allows the parent component to have full control over its behavior and data flow.

When designing a component, carefully consider which pieces of information should be controlled (managed via props) and which should remain uncontrolled (handled by the component’s state). However, keep in mind that you’re not locked into your initial decision—you can always refactor later as the needs of your application evolve.

There are many default browser actions:

1. mousedown – starts the selection (move the mouse to select).
2. click on <input type="checkbox"> – checks/unchecks the input.
3. submit – clicking an <input type="submit"> or hitting Enter inside a form field causes this event to happen, and the browser submits the form after it.
4. keydown – pressing a key may lead to adding a character into a field, or other actions. contextmenu – the event happens on a right-click, the action is to show the browser context menu.
5. …there are more…

All the default actions can be prevented if we want to handle the event exclusively by JavaScript.

To prevent a default action – use either event.preventDefault() or return false. The second method works only for handlers assigned with on<event>.

The passive: true option of addEventListener tells the browser that the action is not going to be prevented. That’s useful for some mobile events, like touchstart and touchmove, to tell the browser that it should not wait for all handlers to finish before scrolling.

If the default action was prevented, the value of event.defaultPrevented becomes true, otherwise it’s false.

A module is just a file. One script is one module. As simple as that.

• To make import/export work, browsers need <script type="module">.
• Modules have several differences:
  • Deferred by default.
  • Async works on inline scripts.
  • To load external scripts from another origin (domain/protocol/port), CORS headers are needed.
  • Duplicate external scripts are ignored.
• Modules have their own, local top-level scope and interchange functionality via import/export.
• Modules always use strict.
• Module code is executed only once. Exports are created once and shared between importers.

When we use modules, each module implements the functionality and exports it. Then we use import to directly import it where it’s needed. The browser loads and evaluates the scripts automatically.

In production, people often use bundlers such as Webpack to bundle modules together for performance and other reasons.

The TIMESTAMP datatype is an extension on the DATE datatype. In addition to the datetime elements of the DATE datatype, the TIMESTAMP datatype holds fractions of a second to a precision between zero and nine decimal places, the default being six. There are also two variants called TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE and TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE. As their names imply, these timestamps also store time zone offset information.

create table table_name (
    column_name number,
    column_name2 timestamp default systimestamp);
