Dan's teaching style is very much "from first principles". You can see that in his Egghead videos, as well as the "Middleware" page in the Redux docs [0].
I've seen feedback that Dan's teaching style is the greatest thing ever, and feedback that it requires a giant leap of faith that "we write thing A, and thing B, and thing C, and magically they all work together at the end". Clearly, different people have different learning styles. Dan and Andrew _did_ try to write the docs in a way that would be accessible for people with varying backgrounds, but it's tough to write docs in a way that works for everyone.
If you or anyone else has suggestions for improving the docs, please let me know! I'm always open to ideas for improvements. Please ping me on Twitter at @acemarke, or file an issue / PR in the repo.

- sailfast 9y agoYeah - I can see that. "It's all functions so it all works" haha. I think the context setter that helped for me was to see "hey here's what I see with state, and here's how I think about it and did the thing" at React EU: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsSnOQynTHs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsSnOQynTHs
