As someone who's been doing React since the beginning, I would agree that it's hard starting out.
However, I think any new paradigm is difficult starting out. Recently I've been learning OO for work and I've been finding it stupidly hard and entirely unintuitive.
- sshine 2y agoI’ve found Vue easier to learn because it bundles things and lets you learn visual components before fully exploring the reactive model. So while the modularity of React is preferable to a seasoned developer, it does no good to a newcomer.
- QuiDortDine 2y agoI have no doubt React is easy if you've been there from the beginning. But if you learned it last year like me, you got to find out the hard way that things are done slightly differently in each version, introducing breaking changes which invalidate the vast majority of the documentation you can find (which you need because the official docs is absolute crap for beginners, as it assumes you already know React's paradigms).
- em-bee 2y agowhat do you mean by learning OO here? javascript is OO too, so you have already been doing OO, as far as i understand it and what you are learning is something different. and now i am curious what that is.
