A Comments App Build Using React.js

In this project, let’s build a Comments App by applying the concepts we have learned till now.

Refer to the image below:

Design Files

• Extra Small (Size < 576px) and Small (Size >= 576px)
• Medium (Size >= 768px), Large (Size >= 992px) and Extra Large (Size >= 1200px)

Set Up Instructions

• Download dependencies by running npm install
• Start up the app using npm start

Completion Instructions

The app must have the following functionalities

• Initially, the list of comments should be zero and the inputs fields should be empty
• When non-empty values are provided and Add Comment button is clicked,
  • A new comment should be added to the list of comments
  • The comments count should be incremented by one
  • The value of the input fields for name and comment should be updated to their initial values
• When the Like button of a comment is clicked, if the image for Like is
  • Like image, then it should be changed to the Liked image
  • Liked image, then it should be changed to the Like image
• When the Delete button of a comment is clicked, the comment should be deleted from the list of comments and the comments count should be decremented by one

Use these files to complete the implementation:

• src/components/Comments/index.js
• src/components/Comments/index.css
• src/components/CommentItem/index.js
• src/components/CommentItem/index.css

Quick Tips

• The formatDistanceToNow function in the date-fns package is used to return the gap between the given date and now in words.

import {formatDistanceToNow} from 'date-fns'

console.log(formatDistanceToNow(new Date())); // less than a minute

Important Note

The following instructions are required for the tests to pass

• HTML input element for name should have the placeholder as Your Name
• HTML textarea element for comment should have the placeholder as Your Comment
• The Like image for each comment should have the alt as like
• The Delete button for each comment should have the testid as delete
• To display how much time ago the comment was posted, we will use formatDistanceToNow function from date-fns package

Things to Keep in Mind

• All components you implement should go in the src/components directory.
• Don’t change the component folder names as those are the files being imported into the tests.
• Do not remove the pre-filled code
