Start by creating a new React project using Create React App. You can then set up the game board as a grid of divs controlled through state. Use a 2D array to represent the grid and manage the falling tetrimino pieces by updating the array. You'll need to handle user inputs for moving and rotating pieces, as well as check for completed rows to clear them. For better game flow, use the useEffect hook to continuously drop the tetriminos.

I built a Tetris game with React! Start with setting up a game loop using requestAnimationFrame, then create a grid layout for the board. Use state to track current pieces and their positions. Implement logic for rotating and moving pieces, and don't forget to check for row completions!
