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 continue working on our ability to create new lists on the frontend. To do this we created a new component we called the create list modal content, which we will use to display the different steps in creating the list. Today we primarily focus on setting up the form that allows us to set the basic list information. To be able to do this we first had to update the edit media modal to be able to save the create list image, then we setup a new create list modal form component that allows a user to input the image they would like to use, the name, a description and whether or not to make the list private. Finally, we styled the create list modal form component and placed it inside of the create list modal content component and tested to ensure everything was working properly.
