This is the repo for tutorial in my blog post Create Contact form with react and php.

Usage of complete project.

Please clone this repo and in the project root directory, Please run:

docker-compose up -d

"If this command doesn't work, You will need to install docker first "

Frontend will run in localhost:3000 Api will run in localhost:8080

Old way ( If you want to run without docker):

npm install

please go to the /app folder and run npm install to install all the nessery npm modules.

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

Using only the component

If you want to use only the react component without using php api. Please download 'src/components/Form/' folder.

You can use the form component like this <Form config={config} />
