How is this course different from a standard React course?

Standard React courses teach component-based development with JavaScript. This course focuses on scaling React with TypeScript, introducing compile-time checks, type safety, and strict project structure to build production-ready apps.

Does the course cover React hooks with TypeScript?

Yes. You’ll learn how to use TypeScript with core hooks (useState, useEffect, useRef, useContext) as well as advanced hooks (useReducer, useMemo, useCallback). You’ll also create custom hooks with strong typing.

Will I learn how to handle forms and events with TypeScript?

Absolutely. A dedicated section covers event handling concepts, form validation, and typed event-driven logic. You’ll also integrate forms with localStorage and strengthen them with TypeScript safety checks.

Who should take this course?

This course is ideal for: React developers who know the basics and want to add TypeScript for scalability. JavaScript developers familiar with OOP principles who want to strengthen their frontend skills. Aspiring frontend engineers who need to build production-ready applications with modern tooling.

Why do I need to know OOP in TypeScript before starting?

Object-oriented programming in TypeScript—such as classes, inheritance, and interfaces—is essential for building reusable, maintainable components. This knowledge helps you understand how props, state, and custom hooks interact in strongly typed React applications.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

What is the refund policy?

This course explores how to build modern frontend applications using React with TypeScript, combining strong typing with practical UI development. Designed for developers who want to go beyond the basics, it demonstrates how TypeScript ensures safer, more scalable, and maintainable React applications by catching errors early and enforcing consistency across components, hooks, and APIs.

Through hands-on lessons and guided demonstrations, you’ll learn to configure React projects with TypeScript, implement typed components, and apply type safety to props, state, and lifecycle methods. You will also explore React hooks in depth, including custom and advanced hooks, and extend type safety into forms, event handling, and styling with UI libraries such as Material UI, Chakra UI, and Styled Components. The module culminates in building a fully typed task manager app that demonstrates how these concepts come together in practice. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Set up and configure React projects with TypeScript for scalable development. - Build strongly typed class and functional components with props, state, and lifecycle methods. - Apply TypeScript to core, custom, and advanced React hooks (useState, useEffect, useRef, useReducer, etc.). - Implement event handling and form validation with strict type checking. - Integrate UI libraries and styling frameworks with TypeScript for production-ready design. - Develop and deploy a type-safe React application that demonstrates real-world best practices. This course is ideal for JavaScript and React developers who want to strengthen their frontend skills with TypeScript. A working knowledge of React will be helpful, but no prior experience with TypeScript is required. Join us to master type-safe frontend development and learn how TypeScript transforms React applications into cleaner, more reliable, and enterprise-ready solutions!

This module covers how to integrate TypeScript into modern frontend workflows. You will learn its importance, configure TypeScript with Webpack, Vite, and ESBuild, optimize build tools, and implement ES modules and module systems. The focus is on accelerating development and setting a strong foundation for frontend projects.

Frequently asked questions

Learners should have a working knowledge of JavaScript fundamentals (variables, functions, ES6 features), basic React concepts (components, props, and state), and object-oriented programming (OOP) in TypeScript such as classes, interfaces, and inheritance. This foundation ensures you can focus on applying TypeScript effectively in frontend projects.

No. You only need basic React experience (e.g., building simple components) and familiarity with TypeScript basics like types and classes. The course builds on this foundation, showing you how to apply TypeScript to real-world React workflows.

You will primarily work with React and TypeScript, along with UI libraries such as Material UI, Chakra UI, and Styled Components. Development will be done using npm, Vite, and Visual Studio Code.

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
