git hooks with husky react

certainly! git hooks are scripts that git executes before or after events such as commits, pushes, and receives. they can be used to enforce certain rules, automate workflows, and more. in a react project, you might want to use git hooks to ensure code quality, run tests, or format code on certain git events.

step-by-step tutorial on using git hooks with husky in a react project

step 1: set up your react project

if you don’t have a react project, create one using create react app:

```bash
npx create-react-app my-app
cd my-app
```

step 2: install husky

to install husky, you can use npm or yarn:

```bash
using npm
npm install husky --save-dev

using yarn
yarn add husky --dev
```

step 3: enable git hooks

after installing husky, you need to enable git hooks in your project:

```bash
npx husky install
```

this command sets up the necessary files for husky to manage git hooks.

```json
"scripts": {
"prepare": "husky install"
}
```

step 4: create a git hook

now you can create git hooks. for example, let's create a pre-commit hook that runs eslint to check your code for issues before committing.

1. create a pre-commit hook:

```bash
npx husky add .husky/pre-commit "npm run lint"
```

this command will create a `pre-commit` file in the `.husky` directory, and it will run the `npm run lint` command whenever you try to commit.

2. ensure you have eslint set up in your project. if you haven't done so already, install eslint:

```bash
npm install eslint --save-dev
```

3. initialize eslint:

```bash
npx eslint --init
```

follow the prompts to set up your eslint configuration.

4. add a lint ...
