Hi guys, in this video, you will learn how to create a React App from scratch. We will use the create-react-app CLI to create our basic app structure. We will also be using an API for our app called #NumbersAPI. We will look at how to use the fetch method to retrieve data from the API and display it in our app. 

By creating a React App from scratch you can see the complete process and you won't be lost. Just follow all the steps discussed in this video.

We will also use a library called react-datepicker which can be used to create a datepicker for our app. We will install the library and its dependencies using npm a node package manager. 

We will take a look at props, states, components, etc.
