Complete Intro to React v5 is the companion code repository for Brian Holt’s Frontend Masters courses on introductory and intermediate React. Its main branch contains the finished pet-adoption application built during the introductory course. The project demonstrates React components, JSX, props, state, effects, context, custom hooks, routing, modals, and error boundaries. Learners use an external pet API to search available animals, inspect details, and navigate between views. Parcel, Babel, ESLint, and Prettier provide the development, compilation, linting, and formatting workflow. Separate branches organize intermediate topics into modules that can be studied independently or out of order. The material uses React 16.8-era dependencies, so it is best treated as historical courseware rather than a current React starter.
