learn react and get comfy with thinking in react
Hey guys what's cool way about learning React (Making projects and searching for help in beta docs when stuck?) I did some react course and have basics but I don't feel like it clicked with me enough to build stuff on my own (react way of thinking especially)

Personally I just kept making stuff, didn't need a whole project to learn something, also just watching random videos at 2 am 🤣 react talks etc
TL;DR
You learn from fucking up
@barry that seems like a way to go maybe i just need to leave my comfort zone 😎
Yeah I just try random stuff
See how it works
Then if it goes wrong I then turn to docs
Also the
leave my comfort zone is very true, you won't learn anything new by making things you already know how to do, that's just you proving what you already know
I like this video on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKA4w2O61Xo&ab_channel=Veritasium

How do you investigate hypotheses? Do you seek to confirm your theory - looking for white swans? Or do you try to find black swans? I was startled at how hard it was for people to investigate numb...
Really cool channel, watched some of his videos @barry
New beta docs may help your "react brain"
React Docs Beta
A JavaScript library for building user interfaces
Yeah he already mentioned it Theo
Ah missed that bit - I'd treat them less like a resource and more like a course
+1 to the "just build shit with react" tho
Thx guys!
