10k views on my Full React Project Video

Recently, I released a video on making an Exercise Tracker Application using React.js. Today at the time of writing this article, it has crossed 10k+ views on YouTube.

Here is the link for the same if you want to get started with React but you are confused as to where to start from.

So check this out :

The features that we build in this course are :

1. Fetching the list of exercises from a local JSON Server
2. Create a New Exercise
3. Update an already existing exercise
4. Delete an existing exercise
5. Toggling the completion status of an exercise and showing it in visually.
6. Creating a filter component to filter the exercises based on the completion status - pending, all, completed.
and more.
