NOTES

Let's break down each part of the code separately:

1. const express = require('express');

 Explanation: This line is importing the express module, which is a web

framework for Node.js. Express simplifies the process of creating a web
server, handling HTTP requests, and routing. By using this line, the script
has access to all the functions and features provided by Express.

2. document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () { ... });

 Explanation: This line listens for the DOMContentLoaded event, which is

fired when the HTML document has been completely loaded and parsed, but
before images, stylesheets, and other resources have finished loading. The
function provided as the second argument will run as soon as the document
is ready, allowing you to interact with the page's DOM (Document Object
Model).

3. fetch('http://localhost:5000/getAll')

 Explanation: The fetch() function is used to make HTTP requests from the
browser. In this case, it's sending a GET request to
http://localhost:5000/getAll. This URL likely refers to an endpoint in a
server (probably an Express server) running on the local machine at port
5000. The server will respond with data, which can then be processed in
the .then() methods.

4. .then(response => response.json())

 Explanation: After the fetch() request completes, the response.json()

method is called to parse the response body as JSON. The response from the
server is expected to be in JSON format, and this method turns it into a
JavaScript object or array, which can then be further processed.

5. .then(data => console.log(data));

 Explanation: This method runs once the response has been successfully
parsed into JSON. The data received from the server is logged to the console
 for debugging or inspection purposes. This data is the result of the request
made to http://localhost:5000/getAll.

6. loadHTMLTable([]);

 Explanation: This function call is attempting to load data into an HTML

table. Here, an empty array [] is passed to the loadHTMLTable function.
This might be a placeholder for later when actual data is passed into the
function.

7. function loadHTMLTable(data) { ... }

 Explanation: This function is designed to populate an HTML table with the

given data. The data is expected to be an array of objects or values that will
be displayed in the table.

8. const table = document.querySelector('table tbody');

 Explanation: This line selects the <tbody> element inside a <table> element
in the HTML document. It assumes the HTML has a table with a body
section (<tbody>) where rows of data will be inserted.

9. if (data.length === 0) { table.innerHTML = "<tr><td class='no-data'

colSpan='5'> No Data</td></tr>"; }

 Explanation: This condition checks if the data array is empty (data.length

=== 0). If it is, the table body will be populated with a row that contains a
message indicating that no data is available. The colSpan="5" attribute
means the message will span across 5 columns in the table. The class no-
data could be used for styling the message.

Summary:

This script is designed to:

 Fetch data from a local server (running on http://localhost:5000/getAll).

 Once the data is retrieved and converted to JSON, it attempts to load it into
an HTML table.
 If the data is empty, it displays a message in the table saying "No Data."
2, FOR DATA BASE CONNECTION

Let's break down the code step-by-step:

1. const express = require('express');

 Explanation: This imports the express module, which is a popular web

framework for Node.js. It simplifies the process of setting up a web server,
routing requests, and managing middleware.

2. const app = express();

 Explanation: This creates an instance of an Express application and assigns

it to the app variable. This app object is used to configure and set up routes,
middleware, and listen for HTTP requests.

3. const cors = require('cors');

 Explanation: This imports the cors package, which stands for Cross-Origin
Resource Sharing. It's used to allow or restrict resources on the server to be
requested from different domains. By using this, the server can handle cross-
origin HTTP requests.

4. const dotenv = require('dotenv');

 Explanation: This imports the dotenv module, which allows you to load
environment variables from a .env file into your application's process.env
object. This is typically used to store sensitive information like database
credentials or API keys.

5. dotenv.config();
  Explanation: This method reads the .env file (if it exists) and loads its
content into process.env. For example, if the .env file contains PORT=5000,
it will make process.env.PORT available in your application.

6. app.use(cors());

 Explanation: This middleware enables Cross-Origin Resource Sharing

(CORS) for all incoming requests. This means that the server will accept
requests from other domains (or origins). Without this, the browser would
block requests from different domains by default due to security policies.

7. app.use(express.json());

 Explanation: This middleware parses incoming requests with JSON

payloads. When a request is made to the server with JSON data (e.g., in a
POST request), this middleware ensures that the request.body is available
and properly formatted as a JavaScript object.

8. app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: false }));

 Explanation: This middleware parses incoming requests with URL-encoded

data (e.g., form data). The extended: false option means that the data will be
parsed with the querystring library (instead of the qs library). This is usually
fine for basic form submissions.

Routes

CREATE: app.post('/insert', (request, response) => { ... });

 Explanation: This route is meant to handle POST requests to the /insert

endpoint. The code inside this route is currently empty, but this would
typically be where you handle inserting data into a database or some other
storage system when a client sends a POST request to /insert.

READ: app.get('/getAll', (request, response) => { ... });

 Explanation: This route handles GET requests to the /getAll endpoint.

When a request is made to this endpoint, the server responds with a JSON
object. In this case, the response is { success: true }, indicating that the
 request was successful. Typically, you would use this route to retrieve data
from a database.

UPDATE: (This part is currently empty)

 Explanation: The UPDATE functionality is usually handled with an HTTP

PUT or PATCH request, allowing you to update existing resources on the
server. This section has been left empty, but typically, it would look like
this:
 app.put('/update/:id', (request, response) => { ... });

Here, :id would represent the identifier of the resource to be updated, and the
server would handle the update logic.

DELETE: (This part is currently empty)

 Explanation: The DELETE functionality is usually handled with an HTTP

DELETE request, allowing you to delete a resource from the server. This
section has been left empty, but typically, it would look like this:
 app.delete('/delete/:id', (request, response) => { ... });

Here, :id would represent the identifier of the resource to be deleted.

9. app.listen(process.env.PORT, () => console.log('app is running'));

 Explanation: This starts the server and listens for incoming requests on the
port defined in the .env file (using process.env.PORT). The server will log
'app is running' to the console once it successfully starts. The port number
should be specified in the .env file, or the application will fail to start if
process.env.PORT is not set.

Summary:

This code sets up a basic Express web server with the following functionality:

1. Middleware:
o Enables CORS for handling cross-origin requests.
 o Parses incoming requests with JSON and URL-encoded data.
2. Routes:
o A POST route to insert data (/insert), though it is currently empty.
o A GET route to fetch all data (/getAll) with a sample success
response.
o Empty placeholders for UPDATE and DELETE routes.
3. Server:
o The server listens on a port defined in the .env file.

REACT JS AND MYSQL

Connecting MySQL with React.js requires using a server-side technology (like

Node.js with Express) to handle the communication between the front-end
(React.js) and the back-end database (MySQL). Here's a step-by-step guide to
achieving this connection.

Overview

1. React.js: The front-end framework that will send requests to the backend
server (Node.js + Express).
2. Node.js + Express: The back-end server that will process HTTP requests
and interact with the MySQL database.
3. MySQL: The database that will store your data and respond to queries from
the Express server.

how can i connect mysql and react js with detailed explanation

ChatGPT said:

Connecting MySQL with React.js requires using a server-side technology (like

Node.js with Express) to handle the communication between the front-end
(React.js) and the back-end database (MySQL). Here's a step-by-step guide to
achieving this connection.

Overview

1. React.js: The front-end framework that will send requests to the backend
server (Node.js + Express).
2. Node.js + Express: The back-end server that will process HTTP requests
and interact with the MySQL database.
3. MySQL: The database that will store your data and respond to queries from
the Express server.

Steps to connect MySQL and React.js:

1. Set up MySQL Database

Before connecting to MySQL, you need a database and a table to interact with.

1. Install MySQL: If MySQL is not installed on your machine, download and

install it from the official MySQL website
(https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/).
2. Create Database and Table: You can create a database and table in
MySQL using the following commands.

CREATE DATABASE mydatabase;

USE mydatabase;

CREATE TABLE users (

id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,

name VARCHAR(100),

email VARCHAR(100),

age INT

);

-- Insert sample data

INSERT INTO users (name, email, age) VALUES ('John Doe',

'john@example.com', 28);

INSERT INTO users (name, email, age) VALUES ('Jane Smith',

'jane@example.com', 34);
2. Set up Node.js + Express Backend

1. Initialize Node.js Project:

Open your terminal and create a new directory for your project, then
initialize the project with npm:

bash
Copy

mkdir backend

cd backend

npm init –y

Install Necessary Packages:

You’ll need Express for the server, MySQL for the database connection, and
dotenv for managing environment variables.

bash
Copy

npm install express mysql2 dotenv

Create Environment File:

In the backend directory, create a .env file to store your MySQL credentials.

.env:

DB_HOST=localhost

DB_USER=root
DB_PASSWORD=yourpassword

DB_NAME=mydatabase

PORT=5000

 Make sure to replace yourpassword with your actual MySQL root password.

 Set Up Express Server:

Create an index.js file in the backend directory:

const express = require('express');

const mysql = require('mysql2');

const dotenv = require('dotenv');

dotenv.config();

const app = express();

const port = process.env.PORT || 5000;

// Create a MySQL connection

const connection = mysql.createConnection({

host: process.env.DB_HOST,

user: process.env.DB_USER,

password: process.env.DB_PASSWORD,
 database: process.env.DB_NAME

});

// Connect to the database

connection.connect((err) => {

if (err) {

console.error('error connecting to the database: ' + err.stack);

return;

console.log('connected to the database as id ' + connection.threadId);

});

// Middleware to handle JSON requests

app.use(express.json());

// GET Route to fetch data from MySQL

app.get('/api/users', (req, res) => {

const query = 'SELECT * FROM users';

connection.query(query, (err, results) => {

if (err) {

return res.status(500).send({ error: 'Database error' });

 }

res.json(results);

});

});

// POST Route to insert data into MySQL

app.post('/api/users', (req, res) => {

const { name, email, age } = req.body;

const query = 'INSERT INTO users (name, email, age) VALUES (?, ?, ?)';

connection.query(query, [name, email, age], (err, results) => {

if (err) {

return res.status(500).send({ error: 'Database error' });

res.json({ message: 'User added successfully!', userId: results.insertId });

});

});

// Start the server

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server running on port ${port}`);

});
 1. Run the Server:

Now, run the server:

bash
Copy
node index.js

Your server will start, and the API will be available at

http://localhost:5000/api/users.

3. Set up React.js Frontend

1. Create React App:

If you don’t already have a React app, you can create one using create-react-
app:

bash
Copy
npx create-react-app frontend
cd frontend

2. Install Axios for HTTP Requests:

Install Axios (a library for making HTTP requests) in the React app:

bash
Copy
npm install axios

3. Create Components for Fetching and Displaying Data:

Now, create a component to fetch data from the backend server

(http://localhost:5000/api/users).

Inside the src directory, create a new file Users.js:

javascript
Copy
 import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';
import axios from 'axios';

const Users = () => {

const [users, setUsers] = useState([]);

// Fetch data from the backend

useEffect(() => {
axios.get('http://localhost:5000/api/users')
.then(response => {
setUsers(response.data);
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('There was an error fetching the data!', error);
});
}, []);

return (
<div>
<h1>Users</h1>
<ul>
{users.map(user => (
<li key={user.id}>
{user.name} - {user.email} - {user.age} years old
</li>
))}
</ul>
</div>
);
};

export default Users;

4. Display the Users Component:

Modify the src/App.js file to display the Users component:

javascript
Copy
import React from 'react';
 import './App.css';
import Users from './Users';

function App() {
return (
<div className="App">
<Users />
</div>
);
}

export default App;

5. Run the React Application:

Start the React app:

bash
Copy
npm start

This will start the React development server on http://localhost:3000.

4. Final Overview

 Backend (Node.js + Express):

o Connects to MySQL using mysql2 package.
o Handles API endpoints for fetching and inserting data into MySQL.
 Frontend (React.js):
o Uses Axios to send HTTP requests to the backend.
o Fetches data from the backend and displays it.

5. Important Considerations

 CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing):

o If you are developing the React frontend and Express backend on
different ports (like React on port 3000 and Express on port 5000),
you'll need to enable CORS in the backend. This is done by using the
cors package in Express.
 Install CORS:

bash
Copy
npm install cors

In your Express server (index.js), add:

javascript
Copy
const cors = require('cors');
app.use(cors());

 Security:
o Make sure to never expose sensitive information like database
credentials directly in the frontend. Keep them in environment
variables or .env files.
o For production, consider using a more secure method for handling
authentication and user management (JWT, OAuth, etc.).

Summary

In this guide, we connected a React frontend to a MySQL database via a

Node.js/Express backend. The React app fetches data from the Express API and
displays it, while the Express server interacts with the MySQL database to retrieve
and insert data.

Addition topics

Sure! Let's go through each part in detail:

1. (() => {}) (Immediately Invoked Function Expression or IIFE)

This pattern is often used in JavaScript, especially in modern ES6 syntax. Here's a
breakdown of each part:
a) () (Parentheses):

 The parentheses () are used to group expressions. In the case of functions,

parentheses are used to wrap the function’s parameters (if any), and also to
invoke the function after its definition when used with an IIFE (Immediately
Invoked Function Expression).

b) => (Arrow Function):

 Arrow functions are a shorthand way of writing functions in JavaScript.

 The syntax is:

javascript
Copy
(parameters) => {
// function body
}

 It’s often used to make code more concise and readable. The function
defined here doesn’t have any parameters (empty parentheses ()), and it
immediately follows with an execution block { ... }.
 Key benefits:
o Concise: Shorter than regular function expressions.
o Lexical this: The value of this inside an arrow function is the same as
the value of this in the context where the function was defined. In
regular functions, this refers to the function itself.

c) {} (Curly Braces):

 Curly braces are used to define the body of a block (e.g., the function
body). Inside the curly braces is where you write the code that the function
will execute when called.

Example:

javascript
Copy
() => {
console.log('Hello!');
}
d) () (Outside the Function) – IIFE:

 This set of parentheses () after the function expression (() => {}) is
immediately invoking the function. This means the function will execute
immediately after being defined.

Example:

javascript
Copy
(() => {
console.log('Hello!');
})();

2. useEffect

useEffect is a React Hook that allows you to perform side effects in your function
components. A side effect is anything that affects something outside the scope of
the current function, such as:

 Fetching data from an API.

 Updating the DOM directly.
 Setting up event listeners.

useEffect is called with two arguments:

javascript
Copy
useEffect(() => {
// Code that runs when the component renders or updates
}, [dependencies]);
a) First Argument (() => {}):

 This is the function that contains the code you want to execute after the
component renders (or re-renders).
b) Second Argument (optional):

 The dependency array [dependencies] is used to control when the effect

runs.
o If it's empty ([]), the effect will run only once, after the initial render.
o If you include variables (e.g., [someState]), the effect will re-run
whenever those variables change.

Example:

javascript
Copy
import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';

function MyComponent() {
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

// useEffect hook runs after every render

useEffect(() => {
console.log('Component rendered or updated');
});

return (
<div>
<p>Count: {count}</p>
<button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Increment</button>
</div>
);
}

3. useState

useState is a React Hook that allows you to add state to your functional
components. State is a way to store and update data that can affect the component’s
rendering.

Syntax:
javascript
Copy
const [state, setState] = useState(initialValue);
  state is the current value of the state.
 setState is the function you use to update the state.
 initialValue is the initial value of the state when the component first
renders.

Example:

javascript
Copy
import React, { useState } from 'react';

function Counter() {
const [count, setCount] = useState(0); // Initialize count as 0

return (
<div>
<p>Count: {count}</p>
<button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Increment</button>
</div>
);
}

4. fetch('')

fetch() is a built-in JavaScript function used to make HTTP requests. It returns a

Promise that resolves to the response from the network request.

Syntax:
javascript
Copy
fetch(url, options)
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data))
.catch(error => console.error('Error:', error));

 url: The URL to which you want to make the request.

 options (optional): A configuration object where you can set HTTP methods
(GET, POST, etc.), headers, and other options.
 then(): Handles the Promise returned by fetch and processes the response.
 response.json(): Parses the JSON data from the response body.
  catch(): Handles any errors that occur during the fetch request.

Example:

javascript
Copy
fetch('https://api.example.com/data')
.then(response => response.json()) // Convert response to JSON
.then(data => console.log(data)) // Handle the fetched data
.catch(error => console.error('Error fetching data:', error));
With async/await (modern alternative):
javascript
Copy
async function fetchData() {
try {
const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error fetching data:', error);
}
}

fetchData();

Summary

 (() => {})(): Immediately invoked arrow function in JavaScript.

 useEffect: A React hook for side effects, like data fetching or DOM
manipulation.
 useState: A React hook for managing state in function components.
 fetch(''): A JavaScript function for making HTTP requests and handling
responses.

These are all important tools in modern JavaScript, especially when building
interactive and dynamic web applications with React!

involve handling user input, making an API call for authentication,
storing user information, and using React Router for navigation.

Here's a step-by-step approach with code examples:

1. Project Setup (if you haven't already):

Bash
npx create-react-app login-dashboard-app
cd login-dashboard-app
npm start

2. Install React Router Dom:

Bash
npm install react-router-dom

3. Create Components:

We'll need at least two components:

 Login.js: For the login form.

 Dashboard.js: The protected dashboard page.

4. Set up Routing in App.js:

JavaScript
// App.js
import React from 'react';
import { BrowserRouter as Router, Routes, Route, useNavigate } from
'react-router-dom';
import Login from './Login';
import Dashboard from './Dashboard';

function App() {
return (
<Router>
<Routes>
<Route path="/login" element={<Login />} />
<Route path="/dashboard"
element={<ProtectedRoute><Dashboard /></ProtectedRoute>} />
<Route path="/" element={<Login />} /> {/* Redirect to login by
default */}
</Routes>
</Router>
);
}

// Higher-order component to protect routes

const ProtectedRoute = ({ children }) => {
const isAuthenticated = localStorage.getItem('token'); // Check if token
exists

if (!isAuthenticated) {
return <Navigate to="/login" replace />;
}

return children;
};

const Navigate = ({ to, replace }) => {

const navigate = useNavigate();
 React.useEffect(() => {
navigate(to, { replace });
}, [navigate, to, replace]);
return null;
};

export default App;

Explanation of App.js:

 We import necessary components from react-router-dom.

 <BrowserRouter> enables routing in our application.
 <Routes> defines the different routes.
 <Route path="/login" element={<Login />} maps the /login path
to the Login component.
 <Route path="/dashboard"
element={<ProtectedRoute><Dashboard /></ProtectedRoute>}
maps the /dashboard path to the Dashboard component, wrapped in
a ProtectedRoute.
 <Route path="/" element={<Login />} sets the default route to the
Login component.
 ProtectedRoute: This is a higher-order component that checks if
the user is authenticated (in this example, by checking for a token
in localStorage). If not authenticated, it redirects the user to the
/login page.

5. Implement the Login Component (Login.js):

JavaScript
// Login.js
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { useNavigate } from 'react-router-dom';

function Login() {
const [username, setUsername] = useState('');
 const [password, setPassword] = useState('');
const [error, setError] = useState('');
const navigate = useNavigate();

const handleLogin = async (e) => {

e.preventDefault();

// In a real application, you'd make an API call here

// to authenticate the user against a backend.
// For this example, we'll simulate a successful login.

if (username === 'user' && password === 'password') {

// Simulate successful login
localStorage.setItem('token', 'fake_token'); // Store a token (you'd get
this from the backend)
// Optionally store user information
localStorage.setItem('user', JSON.stringify({ username: 'user123' }));
navigate('/dashboard'); // Redirect to the dashboard
} else {
setError('Invalid username or password');
}
};

return (
<div>
<h2>Login</h2>
{error && <p style={{ color: 'red' }}>{error}</p>}
<form onSubmit={handleLogin}>
<div>
<label>Username:</label>
<input
type="text"
value={username}
onChange={(e) => setUsername(e.target.value)}
/>
 </div>
<div>
<label>Password:</label>
<input
type="password"
value={password}
onChange={(e) => setPassword(e.target.value)}
/>
</div>
<button type="submit">Login</button>
</form>
</div>
);
}

export default Login;

Explanation of Login.js:

 We use useState to manage the username, password, and error

state.
 useNavigate is used to programmatically navigate to different
routes.
 handleLogin is called when the form is submitted.
 Authentication Logic (Simulated): In a real application, you
would replace the if condition with an API call to your backend to
verify the user's credentials. The backend would typically return a
token upon successful authentication.
 Storing Token: Upon successful "login," we store a token in
localStorage. This is a common way to persist authentication state
in a browser. Important: For production applications, consider
more secure methods like HTTP-only cookies or using a state
management library with proper security measures for sensitive
information.
  Redirection: If the login is successful, navigate('/dashboard')
redirects the user to the dashboard.
 Error Handling: If the login fails (in our simulation), an error
message is displayed.

6. Implement the Dashboard Component (Dashboard.js):

JavaScript
// Dashboard.js
import React from 'react';
import { useNavigate } from 'react-router-dom';

function Dashboard() {
const navigate = useNavigate();
const user = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('user')); // Get user info

const handleLogout = () => {

localStorage.removeItem('token'); // Clear the token
localStorage.removeItem('user'); // Clear user info
navigate('/login'); // Redirect to the login page
};

return (
<div>
<h2>Welcome to the Dashboard!</h2>
{user && <p>Logged in as: {user.username}</p>}
<button onClick={handleLogout}>Logout</button>
</div>
);
}

export default Dashboard;

Explanation of Dashboard.js:
  We retrieve the user information (if stored) from localStorage.
 handleLogout clears the token and user information from
localStorage and redirects the user back to the login page.

7. Running the Application:

Make sure you are in your project directory and run:

Bash
npm start

This will start the development server, and you can access the
application in your browser at http://localhost:3000. 1

Key Concepts:

 React Router: For handling navigation between different views.

 State Management (useState): For managing form input and
error messages.
 API Calls (Conceptual): In a real application, you'd use fetch or a
library like Axios to communicate with your backend for
authentication.
 Authentication Token: A common way to maintain user sessions.
The backend generates this token upon successful login.
  localStorage: Used here for simplicity to store the token and user
information. Be mindful of security implications for sensitive
data in production.
 Route Protection: Ensuring that only authenticated users can
access certain routes (like the dashboard).

Important Considerations for Production:

 Backend Integration: This example simulates authentication.

You'll need a backend API to handle user registration, login, and
token generation.
 Security:
o HTTPS: Always use HTTPS to encrypt communication.
o Secure Token Storage: localStorage is vulnerable to XSS
attacks. Consider using HTTP-only cookies or more robust
state management solutions with proper security measures.
o Input Validation: Sanitize user input on both the client and
server sides to prevent security vulnerabilities.
o Password Hashing: Never store passwords directly in your
database. Use a strong hashing algorithm (like bcrypt or
Argon2).
 State Management: For larger applications, consider using a state
management library like Redux, Zustand, or Recoil to manage
authentication state more effectively.
 Error Handling: Implement robust error handling for API calls
and other potential issues.
 User Experience: Provide clear feedback to the user during the
login process (e.g., loading states, success/error messages).

This comprehensive example provides a solid foundation for building a

login system in React. Remember to adapt it to your specific backend
implementation and security requirements.

JavaScript
function App() {
// useState hook to manage the 'data' state.
// 'data' will hold the array of employee objects fetched from the server.
// 'setData' is the function used to update the 'data' state.
// The initial value of 'data' is an empty array ([]).
const [data, setData] = useState([]);

// useEffect hook to perform side effects in the component.

// In this case, it's used to fetch data from the server when the
component mounts.
useEffect(() => {
// Fetch API is used to make an HTTP request to the specified URL.
fetch('http://localhost:8081/employees')
// The first '.then()' handles the response from the fetch request.
// 'res.json()' parses the response body as JSON and returns a
promise.
.then(res => res.json())
// The second '.then()' receives the parsed JSON data.
// 'setData(data)' updates the 'data' state with the fetched employee
data.
.then(data => setData(data))
// The '.catch()' handles any errors that occur during the fetch
process.
// 'console.log(err)' logs the error to the console for debugging.
.catch(err => console.log(err));
// The empty dependency array '[]' ensures that this effect runs only
once,
// after the initial render of the component, similar to
componentDidMount in class components.
}, []);
 // The 'return' statement defines the JSX structure of the component.
return (
// A 'div' element with inline styling to add padding around the table.
<div style={{ padding: "50px" }}>
{/* A 'table' element to display the employee data. */}
<table>
{/* The 'thead' element defines the table header. */}
<thead>
{/* Table header rows ('th') define the column headers. */}
<th>Id</th>
<th>username</th>
<th>Email</th>
<th>phone</th>
</thead>
{/* The 'tbody' element contains the table body. */}
<tbody>
{/*
The 'data.map()' function iterates over the 'data' array (which
holds the employee objects).
For each employee object, it renders a table row ('tr').
'd' represents the current employee object in the iteration.
'i' represents the index of the current employee object in the
array.
*/}
{data.map((d, i) => (
// The 'key' prop is essential when rendering lists of elements in
React.
// It helps React identify which items have changed, added, or
removed.
// Using the index 'i' as the key is generally acceptable when the
list items
// are not reordered or inserted in the middle.
<tr key={i}>
 {/* Table data cells ('td') display the properties of each
employee object. */}
<td>{d.Id}</td>
<td>{d.username}</td>
<td>{d.Email}</td>
<td>{d.phone}</td>
</tr>
))}
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
);
}

// 'export default App;' makes the 'App' component available for use in
other parts of the application.
export default App;

In summary, the App component does the following:

1. Fetches Data: It uses the useEffect hook to fetch employee data

from the API endpoint http://localhost:8081/employees when the
component mounts.
2. Manages State: It uses the useState hook to store the fetched
employee data in the data state.
3. Renders Table: It renders an HTML table to display the fetched
employee data.
4. Maps Data to Rows: It uses the map function to iterate over the
data array and dynamically create table rows for each employee.
5. Displays Employee Information: Each table row displays the Id,
username, Email, and phone properties of an employee.
6. Handles Errors: It includes error handling to catch any issues
during the data fetching process.
This is a common pattern in React for fetching data from an API and
displaying it in a user interface.
