Create a to-do list app with Phoenix, React, and TypeScript
Blog post from LogRocket
Phoenix v1.6 introduces significant enhancements to its frontend tooling, including HEEx templates, esbuild, and TypeScript support, facilitating easier integration with React for developing complex interfaces. A tutorial demonstrates building a to-do list application using Phoenix with React and TypeScript, guiding users through setting up a development environment, creating a Phoenix application, and integrating React components to handle tasks. The tutorial covers creating a database schema, setting up routes, and using React components like TaskForm and TaskItem to add, display, and manage tasks dynamically. It also explains how to fetch data from an API using React Hooks and handle task completion and deletion. The project highlights the synergy between Phoenix's backend capabilities and React's frontend flexibility, encouraging further experimentation and feature additions.
