About the Course

Learn one of the most popular front-end frameworks, JavaScript React, in this hands-on course. Take the next step in your web development journey by learning how to build client-side user interfaces. You will develop these front-ends using components, the modular building blocks of React applications. You will learn about component composition to create rich functionality with features such as props, hooks, states, and event handling. You will explore component lifecycles and how to pass data and manipulate component states. Build your portfolio and gain practical experience by completing numerous hands-on labs in each lesson. At the end of the course, you integrate your skills with a final project by developing a shopping cart application. This course will help you succeed as a front-end, mobile or full-stack developer. It suits IT professionals looking to step up their careers or new graduates seeking to establish their client-side skills. Note that you will need basic HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Git skills to get the most out of this course....

Very good course overall! the videos were awesome, hands-on labs were perfect. I'd recommend the course to anyone who has a bit of experience in HTML, and JavaScript. But here are my issues: This course is not for complete beginners, you need some experience before starting it. As of my experience, the final project, was a bit too much for the stuff they taught, most of the work I had to google. The course could use some more simple and visual examples for topics to give learners a comprehensive experience. Overall, I think this course is amazing and would recommend!

This was my first encounter with React, and overall it was a pretty good experience. Compared to the course content, the final assignment was difficult and challenging. I needed more help outside of what was provided in the course, but with enough patience and persistence it is possible. There is more i need to learn about reducers and dispatch functions. But overall I think it gave me more confidence and after completing it I am a step closer to becoming a professional.

The course is very good, however, even considering that the level required to start is intermediate, it is important to emphasize that it requires a good level of knowledge of JavaScript, on the other hand, in terms of theory, I think it would help a lot to include more exercises especially Redux because the final project does require more effort and more solid foundations than those offered in the lessons.

An excellent *introduction* to programming with React. It highlights the core functionalities of the framework that a Front-End Developer can expect to use daily, but it can be a little difficult for a beginner programmer. Otherwise, I definitely feel ready to take on bigger Front-End projects with React. I'm super excited!

The course was good over all however the final project was very confusing and didn't seem to line up with the course. The tutors do respond and point you in the right direction so you are not left stranded.

The Power of pushing learners to explore is a very practical skill that is in need for the generation and I got the feel satisfied in this course and I am so thankful for that.

Great course overall that allowed me to learn a lot of important concepts of React. That said, I felt like the difficulty of the course scaled way too rapidly in the end.

Personally i would have liked to have hands-on practice. It recommends react_create_app when it is already deprecated.

I would say generally this course is pretty decent, but I'm pretty experienced with React and am taking this as part of a larger track and just have to rate this a little lower if it is meant to teach newcomers about some features of React since it has some parts that distinctly stood out to me as bugs that were examples of the 'right' way to do things. It kind of concerns me since I'll be less experienced in some of the other areas of the course, and don't want to learn bad habits. For example, in Module 3 / Side Effects video / 3:50 a useEffect is shown with an infinite loop in it as the way to do things correctly (foods is a dependency of the useEffect, and the foods state is updated in the useEffect). Also, I saw many areas where there could be issues from state update batches based off the state's previous value. setFoods(foods + 1) should be something like setFoods(prev => prev + 1). Also, some of the questions on quizzes were kind of bizarre, like asking how to do an API call with 'React' and the correct answer wasn't useEffect, it was useFetch, which is not a standard React hook. It is a custom one that was written in this course, but newcomers may think this actually exists in the library from this.

It's better if you provide practical examples rather than just theory.
