JavaScript React Components (2018) Managing State and Data Flow Lifting State Up

I have installed react as specified and all I see is the react logo whenever I make change to my app.

I finished splitting the app into 4 separate js files and including them, after running nom start all I see is the path to the App.js in my-app, I cannot see any of the contents I have edited.

Could you provide some code examples so that we may be able to further assist you?

In the video, Guil shows us how to set up our environment with the npx create-react-app command for future projects. He is just walking us through the steps, but he has already done that step for us on his side, so we don't need to go through installing React. All we have to do is download his files, put them in a "scoreboard" directory, navigate to that directory in a terminal window, and run the commands npm install' (to install dependencies for the project) and thennpm start` to begin the watch processes.
