About a year ago, I wrote a weekly post at Wired‘s Gadget Lab called “DIY Friday.” The first story was about MintyBoost, a USB charger made from AA batteries and an Altoids tin, devised by Adafruit’s Limor Fried. That was what DIY/maker hardware news mostly looked like in the last week of August 2010. Now, […]

by Jay Papisan Imagine React Router as your switchboard operator Like an old-school telephone switchboard, React Router is a smooth, behind-the-scenes operator for your single page (SPA) React application. Users click a link, the URL changes, views change and for all they know they’ve moved on to another page — except they haven’t. React Router is a key tool for giving your SPA the feel of a multi-page application while maintaining the quick rendering of React’s virtual DOM. Let’s go through t
