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 start working on the ability to edit the lists from the custom feed view page. To do this we first setup a new skeleton component for the edit list modal. Then we needed to update the modal slice and modal container components to globally display the popup modal. Once we could globally display the modal, we setup the logic to open the modal inside of our view list information component, finally wrapping up the episode by setting up the modals top bar component that lets up navigate between a couple different pieces of content inside the modal, as well as saving the updated list after changes were made. To wrap up we put the new top bar component into the modal, and tested to ensure it was working as we expected it to.
