It's time to learn React.js
With a focus on simplicity and readability, this course will have you building real time applications and dynamic website components in no time!
Together, we will build “Catch of the Day†— a real-time app for a trendy seafood market where price and quantity available are variable and can change at a moment's notice. We will build a menu, an order form, and an inventory management area where authorized users can immediately update product details.
You can try it out here or get the course if you are already convinced.

What Is React?
ReactJS is a JavaScript library that has become the tool of choice for easily building dynamic user interfaces. The power is in the Virtual Dom — when your application's data changes, React figures out which parts of your document need to be changed, and immediately update only those parts.
Hundreds of thousands of developers from small agencies to large companies use React to deliver top notch experiences in their apps and dynamic website components.
Like who? Facebook.com is made up of thousands of React components. Instagram web viewer is entirely built in React. The brand new Netflix movie browsing experience is powered by React. And many, many more...
FAQ
Is this hooks or components based React?
This course uses a version of React that is class components. The course will be re-recorded shortly to use hooks.

What version of React was this created for?
This series was just totally re-recorded in March 2018 to reflect the latest changes and best practices in React 16.3, React Router 4 and Firebase 3.
How long do I get access for?

Does this video series cover Flux? Redux? Fluxible? Reflux? Alt? Flummox? Marty.js? McFly? Lux? Material Flux? Nuclear.js? Fluxette? Flipity Flop? Fluppity Floop?
React is amazing in that there are many libraries that work really well with it. While those libraries are fantastic, they may add unnecessary abstractions when learning. The creator of Redux even says so.
So, this course is focused on you absolutely nailing React and walking away feeling confident in your understanding, hungry to learn and build more. Once you finish this course, you can take my free Learn Redux as a perfect next step.
