It just mentions you can. The doc should do only that: without tooling.
It's a react tutorial, not a webpack/babel tutorial.
I'd even say you should start with a toto list exercice with only react.createElement, and only move to JSX later.
Using CodePen do show you full-gear examples is dishonest IMO.
- acemarke 8y agoHonestly, there's lots of different ways you can teach and approach learning React, in the same way there's lots of ways to teach and approach programming. Is it better to teach with something resembling a "real app" setup, so the user can start doing something "meaningful" right away? Or is it better to strip away all abstractions and start from the bare bottom, so that the user understands exactly what's going on under the hood? Both are valid approaches, and a lot of times it depends on both the individual's learning style and what their background is.
