Kata

For someone new to React this is extremely vague and confusing. Especially around createElement and how it is meant to be implemented here. Literally NONE of the solutions are even close to this starting code. In order to get this working you need to add to the params of the functions (which if you don't know React you would have 0 clue).

lol.

What a kata....

Make the createElement => use React.createElement

This is a poorly worded kata, it should have stated use the React.createElement method.

I'm having some troubles with the createElement. The 'should be able to take in a properties object' fails. Expected: 'identifier', instead got: null and Expected: 'value', instead got: undefined. Can someone pls help me with that one?

I seem to have misunderstood the question and never used React.createElement method. Even though I read "wrapper method", somehow my brain translates it into "reimplement React.createElement"

I completed the kata using functional-component declaration, different from many of the solutions.

Perhaps a test case that checks for class-component properties that functional components does not have, will help right my tunnel vision during submission.

Not a JavaScript kata.

I'm having issues with one of the server's tests: "should render the list properly". What is the list passed as param in that case? Thanks!

I think I will set this one aside for now. I am at work (none coding job) and I want to be able to take my time with this one.

I kind of wished that the examples would include one that makes use of the "props" argument. Oh well.

Not so easy, particularly if you have little background in this stuff (the doc didn't help at all in my case; on the contrary...), but glad I did and learned something new: thanks :)

cool I thought we had to use the javascript only version of React but from the other solutions it looks like node automatically interperets JSX with require('react');

Good to see React here, but shouldn't that be separate language from JS? Thanks for that Kata, I see it's time to learn something new!

For a framework that many people won't be familiar with, Facebook's documentation is highly technical and skips some basic assumptions. I had to guess several times what syntax it was looking for.

Kudos to them in that my guesses were right every time, so it's reasonably intuitive, but there should really be some complete examples somewhere.

UndorderedList -> "UnorderedList"

Missing example test cases.

I have a solution working in the console (of a browser), but when I click "Run tests" inside codewars all I get is a an helpful "Test didn't pass: Unknown error". Is the server running tests down at the moment?

This is the best Kata I did encounter nowadays! It finally forced me to look at React, wich I was avoiding for too long I guess. Thank you!
