Both answers from Ibrahim Tanyalcin and Nicolás Parada are correct, but I thought I'd add onto them a bit. 😄 One way to achieve what you're trying to do in the browser environment is to wrap your module in an IIFE and then return what you want to expose to a variable attached to window . For example, let windowVariable = ( function ( ) { let Menu = {}; return { specialty: "Roasted Beet Burger with Mint Sauce" , getSpecialty: function ( ) { return this .specialty; } } })(); This way, local variables to your module are wrapped inside a IIFE so that they don't leak out and the part that you want to expose to the outside environment is returned .

I'll give it a shot. Thanks! 🙂

The name is kind of self-explanatory - it prevents the default action associated with the event. 🙂 Taking your example here, we have an onClick event being associated with an anchor tag. The default behaviour of a click event on an anchor tag is to take the user to the path specified in the href attribute. But that's not what you want to do here. You have an anchor, but you want to override the default behaviour and, instead of taking the user to / , you want to execute doMeow() . That's where event.preventDefault() comes in. It prevents the default event side-effect from occurring. PS - On a side-note, this is not react specific. This is general javascript browser event method!

It's pretty much Javascript end-to-end. 😄

But is there a way to do it globally via my eslintrc or via pre-commit ? 🤔

Here's a simple side-project I built along with Aditi Mohanty . It helps you mock http status codes so you don't have to simulate the scenarios to get these status codes yourself! http://sendback.io http://sendback.io

What's the harm? 🙂 The package.json defines the packages that a single project needs. And especially when you're collaborating with others on this project, it's usually best to have no dependencies on global packages and instead install everything locally, so that you don't have to depend on others to also install the global package as well.

Hey! Is there a hard requirement to install them globally? Ideally the package.json defines what's required by a single project. Most globally used packages like eslint and nodemon can also be installed locally, and be reference in node_modules/.bin 🙂 Hope this helps. Let me know if you need to know anything in particular!

Physically, I hit tab to indent. But my editorconfig makes it two spaces . Best of both worlds? 😛

I'm not sure what your use-case is, but maybe have a look at Google's Puppeteer . 😄
