Ten-hour video course covering React from first principles through advanced patterns. Starts with dev environment setup, the command line, npm and Create-React-App, then builds components with JSX, CSS, props, lists, keys and events. The advanced half works through hooks (useState, useEffect, useRef, useReducer), forms and controlled inputs, conditional rendering, the Context API for prop drilling, custom hooks such as useFetch, PropTypes, React Router, and performance optimization with React.memo, useCallback and useMemo. Aimed at newcomers to React with basic JavaScript knowledge.
