The book looked very good and everything! It was the correct book for my classes and everything. Exactly what came in with the ISBN. Just ended up never using it so it is now collecting dust.

I’m pretty much almost done reading the book so far and I can tell you that it’s been great. The book has a very good view on the modern state of React, especially V18. It goes deep into details about everything that you would use in your React project like routing, modularizing, etc.. and it also goes into deeper topic such as server side rendering.My only wish is that the book could have a section that talks about state management libraries that you could use like Redux.Overall, I think this book is a great way to learn React if you are a either a beginner or those who has knowledge in React already.

I've read this book and never got bored, Everything is to the point and in easy language, helps in understanding the concepts easily.

All around, a solid look at the current state of React in 2022. The book does a great job of introducing React to those who may be new to it, while also helping those who may be transitioning from Class based components to Pure Functional components. The scope of the book is excellent, covering not only the most common pattens you would use day-to-day, but also gets into some deeper topics such as SSR (server side rendering) and Code Splitting in a meaningful way. I also really appreciate that it covers the current version of React (v.18), tackling topics such as State Transitions and Automatic Batching.My critiques are more a style choice than anything. The book exclusively looks at JavaScript over TypeScript, likely to keep the book correctly sized. It also does not get into testing with tools like Jest, or state management libraries such as MobX or Redux. That said, the book covers React extremely well, which is exactly what it advertises.All in all, this is a fantastic book to have on your desk to learn or as reference for modern React.
