Is there a download link so I can watch them offline?

It's not free. Some videos are free to watch, but the others, including the exercises are behind a $249 paywall. The title is misleading.

  The main videos are free, the intros, exercises, and solutions are behind a paywall. But I agree that this is a little misleading

    Sorry about that, meant to say "lectures" not "videos" ... But I mean ... the videos for every pattern is free, so if we're gonna split hairs the title is correct!

Thanks for these! Are you planning to open up intros and exercises?
- ryanflorence 9y ago
  Not any time soon, gotta pay the bills somehow! :P

do you consider $249 free?
- ryanflorence 9y ago
  Jimmy. Jimmy 2020, my man. Did you click the link? Did you notice how every link on the page links to a free video? Did you see the paragraph at the top of the page explaining that these free videos are part of a larger course? No? Huh.

My favorite react talk of all time ( as as beginner, which I was back then ) was by one of the react training staff, Michael Jackson, who gave it at the London React Meetup back in 2015 or so. It seems to be the same material as the Imperative v. Declarative ( <Tone /> ) lecture, and I highly recommend it as a mental model to keep in mind when programming in React. I like this series because it's not 'how to program in react' but more really awesome design patterns and how to use them to better architect your apps.

  That's amazing. I'm not sure how obvious it is to frequent React devs as I haven't done much in the way of React, but rendering a null component out to be able to compose the Tone is just so clever. Is that a common pattern in React world?
