Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: Code words in text are shown as follows: "We can include other contexts through the use of the include directive."

A block of code is set as follows:

import React from 'react';
import { render } from 'react-dom';

const reactElement = React.createElement(
  'h1', 
  { className: 'header' }
);

render(
  reactElement,
  document.getElementById('react-application')
);

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

<!doctype html>
  <html lang="en">
    <head>
      <title>Snapterest</title>
    </head>
    <body>
      <div id="react-application">
        I am about to learn the essentials of React.js.
      </div>
      <script src="./snapterest.js"></script>
    </body>
  </html>

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/snapkite/snapkite-engine.git

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "clicking on the Next button moves you to the next screen."
