Introduction to building a responsive skills component

The skills component will display a list of skills along with their proficiency level. We will use React to create the component and Bootstrap for styling. The final result will be a sleek and professional-looking skills section that adapts to different screen sizes.

Setting up the project with React and Bootstrap

First, make sure you have Node.js and npm installed on your machine. You can create a new React project using Create React App:

npx create-react-app skills-component cd skills-component

Next, install Bootstrap and React Bootstrap:

npm install bootstrap react-bootstrap

Creating the Skills component

In the src folder of your project, create a new file called Skills.js. This file will contain the Skills component code. Here's a basic structure for the Skills component:

import React from 'react'; const Skills = () => { return ( <div> {/* Skills content will go here */} </div> ); }; export default Skills;

Styling the Skills component with Bootstrap

Bootstrap makes it easy to style our skills component. We can use Bootstrap's grid system to create a responsive layout. Here's how you can structure the skills component using Bootstrap classes:

import React from 'react'; import { ProgressBar } from 'react-bootstrap'; const Skills = () => { return ( <div> <h2>Skills</h2> <div className="row"> <div className="col-md-6"> <h3>Technical Skills</h3> <ProgressBar now={80} label={`80%`} /> <ProgressBar now={70} label={`70%`} /> <ProgressBar now={60} label={`60%`} /> </div> <div className="col-md-6"> <h3>Soft Skills</h3> <ProgressBar now={90} label={`90%`} /> <ProgressBar now={80} label={`80%`} /> <ProgressBar now={70} label={`70%`} /> </div> </div> </div> ); }; export default Skills;

Making the Skills component responsive

Bootstrap's grid system automatically makes our skills component responsive. The col-md-6 class ensures that the skills are displayed in two columns on medium and larger screens. On smaller screens, the skills will be displayed in a single column.
