How can I use the page reference for seamless navigation between complex Interactions of multiple pages?
I am currently developing a web-based application that involves multiple pages with complex interactions. How can I execute the page reference to ensure seamless navigation between different sections of the application?
In the context of Salesforce, you can implement the page reference effectively in a web-based application with multiple pages and complete interactions by using the several techniques which are given below:-
Navigation and routing
You can use a front-end routing library to manage navigation between pages.
URL parameters
You can pass the data between pages by using the URL parameters.
Local storage or session storage
You can store the temporary data or even state information in the local storage of the browser. This would allow you to preserve the preferences of the users.
Cookies
You can use the cookies for storing small pieces of data which is persisting multiple page visits.
Here is a simplified example given
First, let us set up the react application structure:-
Install necessary packages
Npx create-react-app page-reference-app
Cd page-reference-app
Npm install react-router-dom redux react-redux
Create the folder structure
Src
├── components
│ ├── Home.js
│ └── Product.js
├── reducers
│ └── userReducer.js
├── App.js
├── index.js
└── store.js
Add the following code to each file
Src/App.js
Import React from ‘react’;
Import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch } from ‘react-router-dom’;
Import { Provider } from ‘react-redux’;
Import store from ‘./store’;
Import Home from ‘./components/Home’;
Import Product from ‘./components/Product’;Function App() {
Return (
);
}
Export default App;
Src/Component/Home.js
Import React from ‘react’;
Import { Link } from ‘react-router-dom’;
Function Home() {
Return (
Welcome to My Web App
View Product 123
);
}
Export default Home;
Src/Component/product.js
Import React from ‘react’;
Import { useParams } from ‘react-router-dom’;
Import { useSelector } from ‘react-redux’;
Function Product() {
Const { id } = useParams();
Const user = useSelector((state) => state.user);
Return (
Product Details
Product ID: {id}
User ID from Redux: {user.userId}
);
}
Export default Product;
Src/reducers/userReducer.js
Const initialState = {
userId: ‘456’, // Initial user ID
};
Const userReducer = (state = initialState, action) => {
Switch (action.type) {
Default:
Return state;
}
};
Export default userReducer;
Src/store.js
Import { createStore } from ‘redux’;
Import userReducer from ‘./reducers/userReducer’;
Const store = createStore(userReducer);
Export default store;
