Building large scale application is more difficult than many people understand or expect. Join me in this long running series where I set out to duplicate one of the most popular social media platforms ever creating using Java, Spring Boot, Spring Security, PostgreSQL data, React JS web application framework and more.
In this episode we work on wrapping up the edit profile modal. To do this we start out inside of our Styled Input file setting up a new styled component for a styled input box. Then we hopped into the Validated Text Input to make a couple small changes to accommodate displaying a text area along with the text input. After setting that up and styling it, we had to go through and update everywhere that used a Validated Text Input before turning our attention back to the edit profile modal. Inside the modal we added all of the text inputs we needed, along with a couple of other components to make it look like twitter. Finally, we tested everything out and debugged a couple of issues preventing us from successfully updating our profile.
