Ask HN: Best way to learn React for someone who's used to Rails?
Hi,
I want to learn React, however Googling 'learn react' gives me a billion results and I don't want to start on a subscribe to a tutorial site or buy a book if there's a better one out there.
I'm great with javascript, so do not need to pick that up, and have hacked around and forked a few React projects but never really known quite what's going on or where to start with them.
I was wondering what is the best way to learn it. I am best I think learning from videos, however books are also great too. I'm not so good with scrolling through tutorial websites.
Thanks very much!
- acemarke 4y agoHi, I'm the primary maintainer for Redux, and I've spent much of the last several years helping answer questions about React and Redux. We've got a curated list of learning resources for JS, React, Redux, and TS over on the Reactiflux Discord website: https://www.reactiflux.com/learning https://www.reactiflux.com/learning Admittedly these aren't videos or books - they're generally some of the best articles we've seen. Hopefully this should still be useful!
