React js example. Box shadow effect

Preview Code

1. First, we need fresh reactjs setup, and for that, we need to run below commands into out terminal, and also we should have latest node version installed on our system:

npx create-react-app my-awesome-project

cd my-awesome-project

npm start

2. Now we need to run below commands into our project terminal to get bootstrap and related modules into our reactjs application:

npm install [email protected] --save

npm start //For start project again

3. Finally for the main output, we need to add below code into our my-awesome-project/src/App.js file or if you have fresh setup then you can replace my-awesome-project/src/App.js file code with below code:

import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';


function App() {
  
	return (
		<div>
			<div class="container bootstrap snippets bootdeys">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>Without shadow</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo"></div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>.z-depth-1</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo z-depth-1"></div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>.z-depth-2</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo z-depth-2"></div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>.z-depth-3</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo z-depth-3"></div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>.z-depth-4</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo z-depth-4"></div>
    	</div>
    	<div class="col-sm-2 text-center">
    		<p>.z-depth-5</p>
    		<div class="box-shadow-demo z-depth-5"></div>
    	</div>
    </div>
</div>
		</div>
	);
}
export default App;

4. Now we need to add below code into our my-awesome-project/src/App.css file :

body{margin-top:20px;}

.box-shadow-demo {
    background-color: #009688;
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    margin: 20px auto;
}
.z-depth-1 {
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.37);
    box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.37);
}
.z-depth-2 {
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 2px 2px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2),0 6px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
    box-shadow: 0 2px 2px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2),0 6px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
.z-depth-3 {
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 11px 7px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.19),0 13px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
    box-shadow: 0 11px 7px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.19),0 13px 25px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
.z-depth-4 {
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 14px 12px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.17),0 20px 40px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
    box-shadow: 0 14px 12px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.17),0 20px 40px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
.z-depth-5 {
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 17px 17px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15),0 27px 55px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
    box-shadow: 0 17px 17px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15),0 27px 55px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
}
