This course will teach you to build real-world apps with React Router 6. Click here to get to the interactive version 👉 https://scrimba.com/links/react-router-6-course Throughout the course, you’ll be building an app called “VanLife” – an Airbnb-style web app dedicated to renting out travel vans for your next big road trip! As you build “VanLife”, you will learn all the important parts of React Router, such as layout and index routes, nested routes, filtering results with search parameters, protecting routes for authenticated users, and more. You will also learn about the new Remix-inspired data router APIs, including Loaders and Actions. This course was created by Bob Ziroll, Scrimba’s Head of Education.
