Help to migrate src/components/Modal/Modal.tsx

[thisislawatts]

We are looking to migrate src/components/Modal/Modal.tsx to packages/components/src/Modal/Modal.tsx

Why?

• Improve structure of the components
• Improve documentation for our existing components
• Make it easier for our design team to review and refine the components
• Decouple our components from application state
• Convert our class based components to functional components
• Allow reuse of our components outside of the primary single page application (SPA)#

Definition of Migrated

• The component file exists in packages/components/src
• There is a companion *.stories.tsx which includes an example for each use case of the component

How?

1. Create a new component in ./packages/components
2. Move existing component into new component
3. Update all references to import the new component from oa-components
4. Delete all files from ./src/components

🐉 Things to watch out for:

• If the original component file exported multiple components these should be split into multiple separate files
• If the component you're working on imports another component from src/components you will need to migrate that item first. Please make sure to claim ownership on the associated issue.
• We want to use functional components, read more around how to refactor a class component
• You may spot an opportunity to create a new component to encapsulate some elements which are being used frequently across the UI. Yay, a new component is born 🐥
• The component may not need to exist.
