Fast one for you guys

I just started learning React.

The main question!
Is JSX a good option ?
i want to get used to a method that is used in most of the companies.

Sooo ?

JSX is definitely a good option and I’m sure most companies that use React likely use JSX as well. Imo is attaches more semantic meaning to the components you create (although you should still always use semantic html markup where applicable) but important to note that it’s not a requirement for using React: https://reactjs.org/docs/...

React and type script imo. Get onto redux as well. Then for styling styled components is my preference.

It’s either jsx or ts, most people use jsx with react

Maybe even tsx

Me too !!!

I know it's a year late but how did the whole react thing go?

I'm in the same boat you were 269 days ago and curious about your results.

@Wisecrack Hey, and wow, you did scroll to find this rant , impressed!

Myself I am not working at the chillest company which let's me learn and practice whole having a decent income.

So far i havev build a few platforms, one of them I actually started and finished today :D

What about you man? how is your experience so far?

P.S they also thought me how to build API`s

@Clear0Ff

You're not at the chillest place, or are?

It was a lot of adjusting to the idea of compiling first. Basically I learned *years* ago, with javascript and PHP. Apparently I was permanently mentally-mutilated by the experience because I suddenly found what had been easy, had become hard as fuck.

Part of it was the idea of 'magic'. Put in a config, setup this toolchain, issue some obcure cli commands, boom you have C++->assembly. Oh no, I mean, you have MOAR javascript, only it's more...javascripty?

Confused the fuck out of me and through me for a mental loop.

And then the whole debacle with AMD, UMD, commonjs, browserfy. The tech changed so frequently and theres so many 'old' standards (for some flavor of 'old') still used, and any code you look at doesn't really explain why it chooses to do one thing versus another.

If you're a dev who relies on learning first principles down to nuts and bolts first, it's a long fucking climb.
