Requirements

Basic Understanding of JavaScript

Familiarity with HTML and CSS

Prior experience with web development concepts and practices will be beneficial but is not mandatory

Students should have a text editor of their choice installed on their machines, such as Visual Studio Code, Atom, or Sublime Text.

NodeJS and npm (Node Package Manager) should be installed on the student's computer to facilitate the installation of dependencies and the use of the React CLI.

To fully participate in the course, students will need to create a Firebase account. Instructions on setting up a Firebase project will be provided during the course.
