3 JavaScript Frameworks that have Embraced the Components Based Future of Web Development

Photo description: Stock photo ID: 488632696 Construction site. Reinforced concrete basement of high-rise residental building. Concrete pouring, metal frame piles, steel rods, tower cranes

There’s a new theme circling the front-end web development scene these days—components-based web development.

This new style of web development focuses on creating small, self-contained, components that can be strung together to build a full-featured user interface (UI).

The idea of encapsulating code into reusable UI components is nothing new, but it’s only in recent years that JavaScript frameworks have made it feasible to build an entire front-end out of these components. These three articles from Upwork’s Hiring Headquarters highlight frameworks that allow you to take advantage of the componentized future of the web.

1. Progressively componentize with Vue.js

A primary selling point of component-based architectures (CBA) is the ease of integrating new features. Vue.js makes this concept its defining mantra, calling itself “the progressive JavaScript framework”—it encourages you to incrementally adopt Vue components into your app’s UI as required.

In “An Introduction to the Vue.js JavaScript Framework,” Carey Wodehouse highlights this progressive framework:

“Many front-end JavaScript frameworks provide you with all the bells and whistles right out of the box, letting developers pick and choose the modules they need. But with all of that functionality at your fingertips comes a lot of code overhead—something that can potentially slow performance.

To answer the needs of developers who don’t need quite as much under the hood but would prefer to pick and choose the modules they need, Vue.js offers a buildable framework—layered components that let you add as much as you need, where you need. With that comes a great deal of flexibility and performance that’s right on par with mature, road-tested frameworks like React, Riot and Polymer.”

Vue.js is also less opinionated than the competition; with simple HTML templates and support for CSS modules and pre-processors, knowledge of the web fundamentals (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) is all you need to pick up and play with its components. It’s also incredibly lightweight, weighing in at only 20kb under minification and gzip compression. Read the full article >>

2. Handle components the Angular way with Angular 2

Initially released in 2009, AngularJS has had a long reign as the most popular JavaScript development framework. The Angular development team caught wind of the componentized future of web development and launched Angular 2 (or simply Angular), a complete rewrite of the framework.

In my post, “The Future is Angular: An Introduction to Angular 2,” I introduce the successor to the Angular development platform:

“Perhaps the biggest change to the Angular platform is the shift towards components-based web development. Angular 2 allows you to build web applications out of components that neatly encapsulate all the style and function required for a certain feature to work. Making custom HTML elements in AngularJS took a non-trivial amount of code, requiring the developer to reason about controllers, directives, restrict and scope. Angular 2 greatly simplifies that process with components—reusable UI building blocks that are easy to test and reuse.”

Beyond the switch from model-view-controller (MVC) to CBA, the article dives into the ways in which Angular improved on some of its flagship features, such as dependency injection and two-way data binding, the platform’s switch to TypeScript, and its shiny new command line interface (CLI). Read the full article >>

3. Harness the power of SSR with React

UI components have been around for a long time, but it wasn’t until React.js was released in 2013 that the power of a purely components-based approach to web development became mainstream.

In “An Introduction to the React Framework,” we see how React made server-side rendering (SSR) relevant again:

“The beautiful thing about [SSR] is that the app is able to pre-render the initial state of a view before showing it to the user. When a user loads a webpage, they get to see it as the designers and developers intended, without having to wait for their browser to download the JavaScript necessary to render the page. [SSR] is also great for search engine optimization (SEO), since most search engines have an easier time crawling and understanding pre-rendered HTML views.”

The article goes on to explore how React is able to provide superior performance through SSR with the help of a virtual Document Object Model (DOM)*—a local simplified copy of the actual DOM that allows React to alter specific parts of the DOM without having to refresh the entire webpage with every change to the UI.

As a components-oriented framework, you are free to use React as the “V in MVC” for an existing project, or to build competitive apps entirely out of React components with Flux—an alternative design pattern to MVC—and Redux, a library that helps you use Flux. Read the full article >>

*The DOM is an application programming interface (API) for documents, usually HTML and XML, in the context of web development. It defines the active data structure of a web page that you get when the browser parses a document.

Spotlight on Freelance Engineer Héliton Nordt

Héliton Nordt pictured at Hobbiton in NZ.

Two years ago, Héliton Nordt wanted the freedom to travel the world. A software engineer experienced in React and Redux, he launched his freelancing business through Upwork in 2013.

“I never liked to work from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. to earn a limited amount of money,” he said. “After two years working on Upwork I was able to save a good amount of money. I’m now traveling the world and have the freedom I always wanted.”

The “secret” to success? It starts with great work

Nordt’s freelance business is booming, not only because he is great at what he does, but also because he knows how to deliver a quality client experience: A quick glance at his work history and feedback tells the story of a freelancer who goes above and beyond.

“I have passion and I love what I do. I always do my best to deliver high-quality work,” he explained. “Earning money is a consequence, so my focus is making my clients happy—not earning money. Money is important, but it’s a consequence of hard work.”

But relationships he’s made through the Upwork community have also been an essential part of Nordt’s thriving business.

“I’ve met incredible people and we have built awesome projects together. I’ve learned so much about [other people’s] culture. I even left my home country of Brazil to visit them on the other side of the world in New Zealand. I also improved my English and programming skills.”

Be selective when it comes to new projects

“Of course, you need to have some sense to filter good clients,” Nordt advises. His first step is to look for projects or invitations he is interested in, then send proposals to those projects to start the interview process

Though it is not recommended to begin work on a project before a client is verified, Nordt says it isn’t a concern for him. “I don’t filter for verification because even unverified clients could be great to work with, they could just be new to the platform.”

But there are factors that are red flags for him: “If the client insists on a low rate, I don’t take the project. It means they’re not interested in high quality, and there is a good chance that the project is not very important for them. I try to avoid that type of client.”

Before taking on a new project, Nordt says he asks for the full scope, specs, and mockups, and asks as much as he can about the project. “[I want to] make sure the client is well organized and understands what they want and what their expectations are,” he explained.

“Some clients have the scope and specs inside their mind only and think it’s implicit that everything will be delivered. Often, I need to help the client write the scope and specs correctly. That helps both of us. I think that’s the key to a project’s success—everything should be very clear from the beginning.”

Keep your business skills sharp

Over the past two years, Nordt has honed a lot of skills—particularly how he manages time, clients, projects, money, administrative and legal tasks, and marketing. “[You need to learn to] sell yourself when submitting proposals or receiving invitations.”

Nordt thinks this business know-how helps give freelancers an edge in the marketplace. “When you hire a freelancer, you are hiring a highly skilled professional that could help you improve your project in many aspects, not only the area they’re specialized at.”

His advice to others who want to follow in his footsteps: “Be disciplined, deliver quality, deliver passion, work hard and don’t waste all your hard earned money.”
