I would like to be a part of drupal.org in GSOC. The project Decoupled menus for Drupal. Which is the concept of making Drupal combined with New technology react. The two use cases which were used in the description were much interested. I was learning with the react over the past 10 months. So I would like to solve the problem in a good manner like combining the react with PHP or Python. So, First of all, they asked us to build a menu section that should be globally active around the other pages. This can be done by the react components. Which I had the idea of doing it. In the second use case, they asked to create a menu(s) that changes from page to page like the "Content Moderator Shortcuts" menu to the "moderator" role. Which we can implement with React router dom. But the main task of this objective is to combine the react with drupal. While we know Drupal still serves as a backend repository, front-end frameworks can talk to the database via API calls. By making the Make a stand-alone front-end and using drupal to create APIs which interact with the database. Then consume the API through HTTP AJAX or whatever mechanism React Js contains. Yeah, while coming to symphony it's been a task for me to learn it for using it as a framework. I have already had a little experience with the laravel framework. I am keen interested and fully fledge to be a part of this project.
