First off I would like to thank Amazon for this incredible delivery. I ordered at 5:30am and received the book the same day at 6pm. Unbeatable service.Summary of my experience:- HTML & CSS experience- JavaScript experience- Java experience- SQL experienceI approached this book with my limited skill set and initially I thought it would be confusing, I have just started reading the book and have paused at page 70 to now focus on some practical learning.So far, without any actual programming I have understood the concept of react and how it is the best tool for front end development. I have understood how components and functional components are created and how to create a level of separation between components that handle data vs handle UI/UX. I have understood how props are used and how to create userstates for a component. I am still confused at some points but I am sure some practical coding will help me resolve my outstanding questions.Well done on creating an easy read and for providing links to further reading to each topic so I can further research the parts I am struggling to get my head around.I will update my review periodically with my progress.

I’m pretty much almost done reading the book so far and I can tell you that it’s been great. The book has a very good view on the modern state of React, especially V18. It goes deep into details about everything that you would use in your React project like routing, modularizing, etc.. and it also goes into deeper topic such as server side rendering.My only wish is that the book could have a section that talks about state management libraries that you could use like Redux.Overall, I think this book is a great way to learn React if you are a either a beginner or those who has knowledge in React already.

I was given an opportunity to read this book because I recently graduated from a Bootcamp. However, one of the authors contacted me directly and gave me a copy to read this book. I'm not being paid or requested to post five stars review but only an honest review.This book is excellent and awesome to keep aside while working on React 18. It covers many topics on React, and it has helped me a lot in my programming. Many topics that this book covers have taught me to program better and cleaner code. As a current junior developer, I feel that this book is very well made and will reach many people. I personally have recommended this book to fellow students and friends who are wanting to get into React or looking to expand their knowledge of the library.

The book looked very good and everything! It was the correct book for my classes and everything. Exactly what came in with the ISBN. Just ended up never using it so it is now collecting dust.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
