---
## Setup & Installation
### React Version
1. **Clone the repository:**
```sh
git clone https://github.com/arnobt78/Backroads--React-Landing-Page.git
cd Backroads--React-Landing-Page
```
2. **Install dependencies:**
```sh
npm install
```
3. **Start the development server:**
```sh
npm start
```
The app will run at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
---

```
or just double-click the file.
---
## Walkthrough & Functionality
The app is organized into clear React components that represent different sections of the landing page:
- **Navbar**: Sticky navigation with smooth scroll links.
- **Hero**: Eye-catching introduction with a call to action.
- **About**: Information about the company/brand.
- **Services**: List of travel-related services using icons and text.
- **Tours**: Dynamic display of travel packages with images, price, location, and duration.
- **Footer**: Social media links and copyright.
Each component is designed for reusability and clarity. Data for the tours, services, and links is stored in `src/data.js`, making it easy to update or extend the site.
---
## Component Breakdown
### `App.js`
The root component, imports and renders all major page sections:
```javascript
import About from './components/About';
import Footer from './components/Footer';
import Hero from './components/Hero';
import Navbar from './components/Navbar';
import Services from './components/Services';
import Tours from './components/Tours';
function App() {
return (
<>
>
);
}
export default App;
```
---
### `Hero.js`
```javascript
const Hero = () => (
backroads app
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Vitae explicabo debitis est autem dicta.
explore tours
);
export default Hero;
```
---
### `About.js`
Displays company info and an image.
```javascript
const About = () => (
);
export default About;
```
---
### `Services.js` & `Service.js`
Renders a grid of services using icon, title, description.
`Services.js`:
```javascript
import { services } from '../data';
import Service from './Service';
const Services = () => (
{services.map(service => )}
);
export default Services;
```
`Service.js`:
```javascript
const Service = ({ icon, title, text }) => (
{title}
{text}
);
```
---
### `Tours.js` & `Tour.js`
Displays featured tour cards from the `tours` array in `data.js`.
`Tours.js`:
```javascript
import { tours } from '../data';
import Tour from './Tour';
const Tours = () => (
{tours.map(tour => )}
);
export default Tours;
```
`Tour.js`:
```javascript
const Tour = ({ image, date, title, info, location, duration, cost }) => (
{date}
{title}
{info}
{location}
from ${cost}
{duration} days
);
```
---
### `Footer.js`
Links to pages and social media, displays copyright.
---
### `data.js`
Centralized data for navigation, services, tours, and social links.
```javascript
export const pageLinks = [ ... ];
export const socialLinks = [ ... ];
export const services = [ ... ];
export const tours = [ ... ];
```
---
## API & Data
- No backend API by default; all data is locally mock-defined in `src/data.js`.
- Easily extendible to connect with real booking/payment APIs.
---
## Deployment & Continuous Integration
- **Deploy to Netlify:** Connect your GitHub repo and follow Netlify’s workflow.
- **Git Commands:**
- Remove existing git repo (if needed): `rm -rf .git`
- Initialize repo: `git init`
- Add files: `git add .`
- Commit: `git commit -m "first commit"`
- Add remote: `git remote add origin `
- Push: `git push -u origin main`
- **Note:** Netlify treats warnings as errors. Fix all build warnings for a successful deployment.
---
## Learning Outcomes & Keywords
