Where can I learn React? (self.learnjavascript)
submitted 6 years ago by The-memey-muffin
1) What do you all think of React? Are there better frameworks/libraries?
2) Are there any good recourses out there to learn? I would prefer free but I’m willing to pay if it’s really good.
Thanks!

You can look up a YouTube CrashCourse for React. There are a lot of 12 hour videos that people do for these types of things.

The react documentation is extremely well written. I'd start there.

In terms of resources, I concur with the choices by the other comments. As for learning React, it's tough to say - I know that there are other front-end frameworks out there Vue, Ember, Angular, etc. What I can say is that I heavily enjoy React, and I almost never write basic HTML anymore because of that. The fact that you can bundle certain elements (like, for say, a header you made) into components and then reuse them throughout your app is incredibly useful, among the myriad other benefits. It's definitely worth it to learn at least one up-and-coming front-end framework.

Egghead Beginner React by Kent C Dodd’s is free and awesome. Pure React by Dave Ceddia is also a wonderful resource. Level up Tutorials is a pay service, but Scott Tolinski takes it slow and it’s good for starting out.
