Hi All,  
I have just finished the first project from Front End Development Libraries - Random Quote Generator- using React.

The link is as below:  
[https://codepen.io/manjuvnair16/pen/vYgYJBw](https://codepen.io/manjuvnair16/pen/vYgYJBw)

I would really appreciate some feedback on it.

Thanks and have a great day!

Hi @manjupillai16 !

I think your page looks good and your code is easy to read.

Just a suggestion, for future projects you might consider playing around with hooks.  
It is not taught in the current curriculum but is common in react now.

> **[Introducing Hooks – React](https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-intro.html)**
>
> A JavaScript library for building user interfaces

For my first 4 projects I used class based components and for the 25+5 I used hooks.

Whether you decide to use hooks or not in these projects, I would still read up on them.

Keep up the good work!

Hi @jwilkins.oboe ,

Thanks for going through the code. I am currently reading up on React Hooks, as I found it being mentioned a lot on any google search on React 😄

Will try to modify the code using hooks.

Thanks again and have a good day!

I don’t think you need to modify this project.  
But for future projects, you can get used to working with them.
