  "content": "React follows semantic versioning. Typically, this means that we use patch versions for bugfixes, and minors for new (non-breaking) features. However, we reserve the option to release minor versions even if they do not include new features. The motivation is to reserve patches for changes that have a very low chance of breaking. Patches are the most important type of release because they sometimes contain critical bugfixes.",

Components Structure

Implementation Files

Use these files to complete the implementation:

• src/App.js
• src/components/Home/index.js
• src/components/BlogList/index.js
• src/components/BlogList/index.css
• src/components/BlogItem/index.js
• src/components/BlogItem/index.css
• src/components/BlogItemDetails/index.js

Important Note

Click to view

The following instructions are required for the tests to pass

• Home route should consist of / in the URL path

• About route should consist of /about in the URL path

• Contact route should consist of /contact in the URL path

• BlogItemDetails route should consist of /blogs/:id in the URL path

• No need to use the BrowserRouter in App.js as we have already included in index.js file

• Wrap the Loader component with an HTML container element and add the testid attribute value as loader to it as shown below

  <div testid="loader">
    <Loader type="TailSpin" color="#00bfff" height={50} width={50} />
  </div>

Things to Keep in Mind

• All components you implement should go in the src/components directory.
• Don't change the component folder names as those are the files being imported into the tests.
• Do not remove the pre-filled code
