Structure

This outline details the organization and interactions between components within the demo-recipes project.

Components

The project utilizes the following components:

• App.tsx
  • This is the main component, responsible for rendering the entire application.
  • It handles the initial state and logic for the application, including fetching data from the API.
  • App.tsx imports and renders other components such as Dashboard.tsx and Loading.tsx.
• Loading.tsx
  • This component displays a loading indicator while the application is fetching data.
• Dashboard.tsx
  • This component displays the main content of the application, including recipes and other relevant information.

Styling

The project uses a combination of CSS and TypeScript to handle styling:

• index.css
  • Contains global styles for the application, such as basic typography and layout.
• theme.ts
  • Defines a theme object using TypeScript that includes color palettes, fonts, and other styling properties.
  • It is used by the App.tsx component to apply a consistent look and feel across the application.
• App.css
  • Provides specific styles for the App.tsx component.

Component Hierarchy

The components within the project are organized in a hierarchical structure. App.tsx acts as the root component and renders other components like Loading.tsx and Dashboard.tsx. This organization enables modularity and reuse of components.

App.tsx
            |__ Loading.tsx 
            |__ Dashboard.tsx
                |__ RecipeCard.tsx 
          

Data Flow

Data flows through the application in the following way:

• App.tsx fetches data from the API.
• The fetched data is passed down as props to the Dashboard.tsx component.
• Dashboard.tsx processes and displays the data, potentially passing it further down to child components such as RecipeCard.tsx.

Additional Information

• The project follows a functional component approach using React hooks.
• The src directory contains all the source code for the application.

Example Usage

Loading Component:

// Loading.tsx
          import React from "react";
          import "./Loading.css";
          
          const Loading: React.FC = () => {
            return (
              <div className="loading">
                <div className="spinner" />
              </div>
            );
          };
          
          export default Loading;
          

Dashboard Component:

// Dashboard.tsx
          import React from "react";
          import "./Dashboard.css";
          import RecipeCard from "./RecipeCard";
          
          interface Recipe {
            id: number;
            name: string;
            imageUrl: string;
            // ... other properties
          }
          
          interface DashboardProps {
            recipes: Recipe[];
          }
          
          const Dashboard: React.FC<DashboardProps> = ({ recipes }) => {
            return (
              <div className="dashboard">
                {recipes.map((recipe) => (
                  <RecipeCard key={recipe.id} recipe={recipe} />
                ))}
              </div>
            );
          };
          
          export default Dashboard;
