Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles 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: "Create a signup route, which will take the GET and POST methods to read the page, and submit the data to the backend database."

A block of code is set as follows:

    sendTweet(event){
      event.preventDefault();
      this.props.sendTweet(this.refs.tweetTextArea.value); 
      this.refs.tweetTextArea.value = '';
    } 

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

$ apt-get install nodejs

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "Click on the Create user button, the user will be created, and the policy will be attached to it."

Warnings or important notes appear like this.

Tips and tricks appear like this.
