Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Detailed Importance of the React Native Package for Separating Styles, Logic, and Template

This React Native package enhances the structure and maintainability of your components by separating the logic, template, and styles. Here's a detailed explanation of its importance and benefits:

1 Improved Code Organization By separating the logic, template, and styles, your code becomes more modular and easier to manage. Each aspect of the component is encapsulated in its own file, making the structure of your project clearer and more organized.

2 Enhanced Readability Having separate files for logic (Text.js), template (Text.jsx), and styles (Text.styles.js) makes it easier for developers to understand the purpose and functionality of each part of the component. This separation aligns with the single responsibility principle, where each file has one clear responsibility.

3. Easier Maintenance and Scalability When styles, logic, and templates are separated, making changes to one aspect of the component doesn't require you to navigate through a large file. For instance, updating styles or modifying the rendering logic can be done independently, which simplifies the maintenance process and reduces the risk of introducing bugs.

4. Reusability Templates and styles can be reused across different components. For instance, if you have a standard style or template structure that is used in multiple components, you can create a shared template or style file and import it wherever needed. This promotes reusability and consistency in your codebase.

5. Improved Testing With separation, you can independently test the logic and rendering of your components. Logic tests can be focused on the component class (Text.js), while snapshot tests can be used to verify the rendered output from the template (Text.jsx). This modular testing approach can improve test coverage and reliability.

6. Clearer Separation of Concerns Separating logic, template, and styles adheres to the principle of separation of concerns. This makes it easier to focus on specific aspects of the component's behavior or appearance without being distracted by unrelated code. Designers can work on styles, developers on logic, and front-end engineers on templates, all in parallel if necessary.

Installation

   npm i -g create-react-native-sweet-component

How to create a new component

Go to the root of your React Native project and type this command:

  create-react-native-sweet-component componentName

Example: Component Breakdown Create Text sweet component:

  create-react-native-sweet-component text

Logic (Text.js)

This file contains the logic for the Text component. It handles the component's state and lifecycle methods.


import React, { Component } from 'react';
import template from './Text.jsx';

/**
 * Text render logic
 * @returns 
 */
class Text extends Component {
    constructor(props){
        super(props);
        this.state = {
            // state variables
        };
    }

    render() {
        return template.call(this);
    }
}

export default Text;

Template (Text.jsx)


import React from 'react';
import { Text, View } from 'react-native';
import styles from './Text.styles';

/**
 * Text template
 * @returns 
 */
function template() {
    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
            <Text style={styles.text}>Text</Text>
        </View>
    );
}

export default template;

This file defines the structure of the Text component. It uses the styles defined in Text.styles.js to apply visual formatting.

Styles (Text.styles.js)

This file contains the styles for the Text component, defined using StyleSheet from React Native.


import { StyleSheet } from 'react-native';

/**
 * Text styles
 * @returns 
 */
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        backgroundColor: 'white',
    },
    text: {
        fontSize: 16,
        fontWeight: 'bold',
        color: 'black',
    },
});

export default styles;

Index (index.js)

This file serves as the entry point for the Text component, making it easier to import elsewhere in your project.

import Text from './Text.js';
export default Text;
