Lazy Loading React Components (with react.lazy and suspense)

Our first step is to create an React application using below command:

npm init react-app react-lazy-loading-component

Navigate to project folder and type npm start to start project on browser.

Make sure you execute command npm run build to prepare build script which will be deployed on server

Route-based code splitting

You have to install react-router-dom using npm install --save react-router-dom to use this functionality.

Deciding where in your app to introduce code splitting can be a bit tricky. You want to make sure you choose places that will split bundles evenly, but won’t disrupt the user experience.

A good place to start is with routes. Most people on the web are used to page transitions taking some amount of time to load. You also tend to be re-rendering the entire page at once so your users are unlikely to be interacting with other elements on the page at the same time.
Sample App.js

import {BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch} from 'react-router-dom';
import React, {Suspense, lazy} from 'react';
import './App.css';

import Header from './Header';

const Home = lazy(() => import('./Home'));
const AnotherHome = lazy(() => import('./AnotherHome'));

function App() {
    return (
        <div>
            <Router>
                <Header/>
                <div className="container">
                    <Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
                        <Switch>
                            <Route exact path="/" component={Home}/>
                            <Route exact path="/another-home" component={AnotherHome}/>
                        </Switch>
                    </Suspense>
                </div>
            </Router>
        </div>
    );
}

export default App;
Actually use of Suspense and Lazy will load components chunk by chunk when they needed, and once a component loaded into browser will not load second time.

Make sure you see console to ensure that suspense callback working as expected:

Laravel Migrations with MySQL 8.0.x - How to resolve the error: SQL authentication method unknown in Laravel-MySql

By default and for some reason, mysql 8 default plugin is auth_socket. Applications will most times expect to log in to your database using a password.
If you have not yet already changed your mysql default authentication plugin, you can do so by:

1. Log in as root to mysql
2. Run this sql command:

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
Replace 'password' with your root password. In case your application does not log in to your database with the root user, replace the 'root' user in the above command with the user that your application uses.

Windows Command Prompt - Change the default Command Prompt directory

The change requires you to modify a value in the Registry. To do so press the Windows and R key at the same time to open up the run box on the system. Type in regedit and tap on the enter key on the keyboard to load the Registry Editor. You may receive an UAC prompt on newer versions of the operating system which you need to accept before the Registry Editor opens up.
Navigate to the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor and search for the String Autorun in the right window.If you can't find the parameter there right-click on Command Processor and select New > String. Name the string Autorun and click ok. Now double-click the new Autorun entry that you find on the right and enter the following string (as example).

C:\Users\PRITOM\Desktop\MINE

How to Install MySQL on Windows

Download the MySQL Installer from dev.mysql.com.

The two download options are a web-community version and a full version.

The web-community version will only download the server, by default, but you can select other applications (like Workbench) as desired.

The full installer will download the server and all the recommended additional applications.

(You’ll also be asked to create a user account, but you skip this part by scrolling down to the bottom and clicking "No thanks, just start my download".)

Run the installer that you downloaded

Determine which setup type you would like to use for the installation

  • Developer Default: this is the full installation of MySQL Server and the other tools needed for development. If you are building your database from the ground up or will be managing the data directly in the database, you’ll want to use this setup type.
  • Server Only: if you only need MySQL Server installed for use with a CMS or other application and will not be managing the database directly, you can install just the server (you can always install additional tools later).
  • Custom: this setup type will allow you to customize every part of the installation from the server version to whichever additional tools you select.
Install the server instance and whichever additional products you selected. Then begin the configuration process by selecting the availability level (most users will use the default, standalone version).

Complete the configuration process by following the on-screen instructions. You’ll want to make sure to install MySQL as a Service so that Windows can automatically start the service after a reboot or can restart the service if it fails. For additional, step-by-step instructions, see MySQL Server Configuration with MySQL Installer.



And finally MySQL installed into your system.
