Technical interview for a React dev

Posted by

In January, I’ve been through so many technical interviews since I was searching for a job. At my current job, I only use vanilla JavaScript but I applied for React developer positions. The interviewers have asked me many technical questions in order to understand what my technical strengths and weaknesses are. Those questions tend to be about JavaScript, React, and browser APIs.

I managed to answer 70% of the questions and I apparently passed these technical interviews :/

  • What is callback hell?
  • What is the difference between node-sass and dart-sass?
  • What is webpack?
  • What do you care about when you write JavaScript?
  • What is the output of false === ‘undefined’?
  • What is the output of false == ‘undefined’?

React

  • What do you think about the Virtual DOM?
  • What are React hooks?

  • What is redux?

  • What kind of components are there?
