Learning React, first experiences

I have bought myself (20 USD) the course https://www.udemy.com/course/react-tutorial-and-projects-course/ by John Smilga.... it's loaded with exercises, but doesn't really focus enough on concepts, besides if there is something that I REALLY hate is watching someone typing code for hours in a row. Also, too many open parenthesis and a very verbose exposition. Here his github repo https://github.com/john-smilga which contains plenty of really nice examples.

I am reading the book "React Quickly, second Edition" and it's a decent book, at least is focuses on concepts, even if way too verbose. Here https://github.com/rq2e/rq2e.git their github repo.

The site react.new is quite cool, but eventually I prefer to run "npm start" locally and code with vscode

This guy https://blog.webdevsimplified.com/ is awesome, he has a youtube channel really worth exploring. He is offering also a paid video training for 60 USD, a bit steep but his explanations are crisp clear and he doesn't get too lost in bloated projects.

The official React site offers a nice basic tutorial https://beta.reactjs.org/learn/

Intellij loose search for text in files

If you enable the "regex" option on the far right of the "find in files" dialog, you can enter things like "TODO .* master" and this will find all the lines with both TODO and master . Small trick which can really save your life.
