-![cf](https://i.imgur.com/7v5ASc8.png) 21: React Tooling
-======
+21 - React Tooling
 
-## Submission Instructions
-  * fork this repository & create a new branch for your work
-  * write all of your code in a directory named `lab-` + `<your name>` **e.g.** `lab-susan`
-  * push to your repository
-  * submit a pull request to this repository
-  * submit a link to your PR in canvas
-  * write a question and observation on canvas
-
-
-## Learning Objectives  
-* students will be able to configure webpack.js to build a web application bundle
-* students will be able to configure babel to transpile JSX and ES6 to ES5 JavaScript
-* students will be able to create and render React components to the DOM
-* students will be able to add event listeners to React components
-* students will be able to update React component state
-
-## Requirements  
-#### Configuration  
-* `README.md`
-* `.gitignore`
-* `.eslintrc`
-* `.babelrc`
-* `package.json`
-* `webpack.config.js`
-* `src/**`
-  * `src/main.js`
-  * `src/style`
-  * `src/style/main.scss`
-
-#### Feature Tasks  
-* create the following component:
-###### App
-* should contain the entire application's view and state
-* should have a property on the state called `content`
-* should create a view with the following display
-  * a heading with the title "Generate Cowsay Lorem"
-  * a button that displays "click me"
-    * `onClick` the button should generate new content on the app state using `cowsay` and `faker`
-  * a `pre` tag that displays the app's state's content
-
-####  Documentation  
-* write a brief description of your project in `README.md`
-
-#### Bonus 1pt
-* add a select menu that enables you to change the type of cowfile currently being used
+The cow says, "Mooo" until you press the button labeled Cowsay. Then the cow's text is replaced by 4 random lorem ipsum words from faker.
