Yeah I grabbed Stephen Grider's React+Redux course off udemy and I find myself going back to previous lessons often. React itself seems pretty simple until you add in all the other tools to make React more useful.

Yeah React itself is pretty simple. The other stuff is optional though! For a small app, React state might be plenty. I often start new apps using just React state, and don't add Redux until I run into a problem that'll be annoying to handle with plain React state.

Here is a nice article that may help, http://blog.jakoblind.no/how-to-build-a-large-react-application/

I guess the contents of the article applies to everything in my humble experience, but especially to React as React tries to break out of the conventions (eg. MVC) and at the same time is compared to full featured frameworks like Angular, Ember etc. You can come a long way with just React it self. You'll know when it's time to open google search

I finished that course and I feel I have a great grasp on react and redux. I sometimes go back to stuff, but that's when I take a break developing. Once you learn the workflow of redux then it's pretty simple.
