Even though I don't need this, it's still unbelievable that someone would ever create such useful, lengthy videos FOR FREE. Thank you!

[@ailtonjosue6817]

[@luisbrazilva]

[@marshax]

"It's JavaScript. You're always going to be confused." Well said.

[@waklara9973]

let me tell you something Brad, you're like my Big brother and tech mentor. even though i graduated in software engineering with 3.93GPA from the top technology University in my country; i didn't have much real world experiences. 3 years ago while i was in the University i start learning MERN Stack from you and JavaScript mastery Chanel. then i got a job and work for Ethiopian Military. while i was working for the Military i also got a chance to work for the biggest security agency in my country. right now i am working for a big private enterprise and 19 banks. on top of that a year ago i started a software development company and i own 50% of the company. i learn a lot from you than my university courses combined. All i can say is thank you and God bless you!

[@whatscooking104]

Please team up with some folks and do a professional E-commerce course where you put everything together. Planning, Figma, UI/UX, frontend, backend, database, microservices, version control, CI/CD etc etc etc etc. Pay attention to everything

[@husseinkizz]

Thanks Brad, always one of the best teachers on internet, you taught me react 4 years ago, I now make react libraries and stuff, thanks man, can't appreciate your works enough!

[@chivicks_hazard]

Thank you Brad 😊 I was considering watching the old tutorial with respect to React 19 but I'm so much relieved now. You're the best 👍💯

[@user-lb5yn1ff8w]

Great Video!!! Thx for sharing your knowledge. My top 1 on the list must-see!

[@akashbroo2985]

So far, this is the best react course that I've watched. Thanks Brad ❤

[@devine_noise]

Hey Brad. Your speech pacing is a perfect speed for me to learn. I find a lot of tutorials want to rush through things. Thanks for the refresher on React. I’ve been building mainly Shopify sites for work and needed to brush up on React for our companies Next JS blog.

[@davidemmanuel5057]

just finished the entire 3 hours and have my code in my github for future reference, pretty good tutorial as the others from this channel, concise, explanatory, direct and practical. The json server mockup just amazed me, I didn't know you can support an entire crud with a json file, cool. I came from vue and there are some things I don't like yet from react, mostly the syntaxis is prone to errors and a bit tangled, but I remember I complained a lot when started with vue a couple of years ago. Still thinking vue is more refined (better in short) than react but react and angular are way more popular, so for job offers I'm learning this one. Thx

[@adarshtiwari7395]

This is exactly my situation haha. Worked with Vue till now but most openings in the market are for React. How are you preparing for a react position?

[@ah3yo]

Just in time, I was looking for a React course! Thank you, Brad!

[@centralcoding]

i remember, Ive learned html and css from your youtube channel, then im know teaching many people. and you came at the right time when i just started learning REACT. I have commented before watching the tutorial. I hope i will grab some important basics of react. thank you!

[@shahbazjavedqureshi]

Couldn't have come at a better time. Looking forward to the 19's official release and your update. You have no idea how much this helps, thank you!

[@ker0h489]

Literally when I just started a project in React for uni, thanks man!

[@jawaderfani8743]

thanks brad you are doing great 👍👍

[@MrUnknown-eq8rh]

It was much needed I am learning full stack right now... Thank you so much

[@Peywan]

1 hour and 8 minutes into the video, and you catch me late and give me an AHA moment for react. thanks a lot Brad. Very appreciated that you do videos consistently and keep up to date with what we need to learn and give this information for free. thanks!!

[@llody7777]

This video is what i was looking for. Thank you so much!

[@wcyee26]

very helpful for a startup project to understand the essential tools for ReactJs, thank you so much.

[@topherreynolds3999]

Thank you! Been studying React for about 3 weeks now. Your video does an excellent job of explaining things in a way I understand. Some other videos I have found just have you follow along without telling you why you are doing the current task. Appreciate this! 🙂

[@bencipherx]

Can we be accountability partners, I am on my way to full stack but my achilles heel tbh is styling lol

[@IainEmslie]

This is such a good tutorial. It's so concise, useful and straight to the point. Awesome.

[@aliciaromano6335]

This was incredibly helpful. I am blown away by the time and effort you put in to making this tutorial. Thank you so much!

[@MarijanRaicevic]

Amazing tutorial. Always loved Traversy Media tutorials, so indepth and easy to understand.

[@mauricedsouza5215]

Im super excited to learn React. I was just waiting for you course🎉. Thanks Brad. God bless you ❤

[@ImFantin]

Such an amazing tutorial man. I can confidently say I can start a react project with no problems after watching this. I really appreciate your videos!

[@prasadhonrao]

Many thanks Brad. Took me full 8 hrs to code it while watching, but it was all worth the effort. Now I will go back to your React course on Traversy Media and add remaining features like backend API and authentication.

[@fatiemami6692]

Thank you very much. I was thinking about it 😅.

[@CodeWithClinton]

Thank you so much Brad, for this course. I am a Backend Engineer who wants to have a taste of the frontend. Thanks again Brad Traversy.

[@webdevluc]

Amazing work with the updated React crash course. It's rare to find such high quality learning resource offered for free

[@chivicks_hazard]

Honestly speaking

[@emmang2010]

I only skimmed the section names but are contexts and providers not covered?

[@randomhominid9816]

Thanks for putting together such an excellent course. I can now do basic react react development. This was so well explained.

[@DeborahRise]

Thank you so much for this. I totally benefitted so much from this and I am grateful for your time.

[@enzo.n.aguiar]

Thank you Brad. I was looking foward to get up to date on React after coming back on coding. As always your content is and will always be very helpfull.

[@luisbrazilva]

I have been a React developer for about 10 yrs or so and I still do these crash courses just to stay on top of new practices. Liek you said React 19 and so on. And your channel have been mu go to all these years

[@christopherhiggins9155]

Great course! I've been trying to dig into React, Vue, etc., by tinkering on my own but couldn't quite grasp it. This is the first resource that finally made sense to the point that I'm convinced I can start using it in projects. Thanks for the walk-through and excellent explanations!

[@mdtanjimahmmed9082]

Thank you so much for this amazing crash course this is really helping me to understand the functionality in really easy way. Thank you so much Brad.

[@mxoh8325]

what a good timing been waiting latest react tutorial thank you.

[@volmedo]

[@maycoral1224]

The first channel that I have subscribed to. Thanks for these helpful videos.

[@AvinashSingh-ts1cn]

Great tutorial no bs all very informative. Thanks for such high quality video.

[@nimira43]

Even before starting this course you know it's going to be quality from the best coding instructor. Would of gladly paided for this. Thanks always Brad.

[@HHJoshHH]

This was awesome Brad! Thank you man!!!!! The only thing I had to fix was the email text box on the jobs page was overflowing which I fixed with break-words and whitespace-pre-wrap properties. But that was it. I had such a good time following along. 🔥

[@FllrOfSonOfRageNLove]

Excellent Tutorial!!!! I did not know anything about React JS, but with this video I learnt the basic CRUD project using React JS. It was a lot of fun. I cannot thank you enough for your great effort.

[@hudsonsilvaoliveira5674]

Oh man, I've learn so much from you, Brad. Thank you so much! I'm a Angular developer (thanks to you too lol) and after knowing Astro, I felt motivated to learn more about React. And it looks so much simpler than Angular, I loved it. But the organization of the project really concerned me. You have freedom to do things however you want, but that opens a whole lot of chances to mess things up, specially long term. You made it clear that your focus on this crash course was to make it as simples as possible, but maybe this could be an interesting topic for another video. How to make this application more advanced (in terms of code). Best practices, other libraries, refactoring code, avoid repetition and so on. Thanks again!!

[@kiddosknowledgewizbyakshit9954]

Thanks a ton! For the valuable video... Really amazing explanation in a simple way.

[@knowlife4486]

Thankyou for all your efforts, it makes a difference !

[@m_shakes]

You are amazing! Thank you so much for this, you make it look easy!

[@jackson_studios]

Great timing, Thanks.

[@mphatsomtogolo6263]

I love this channel man, always cooking useful content

[@nouchance]

Thanks Brad! You are awesome!

[@OniLgnd]

I had previously commented about the edit page not displaying the correct salary amount, but I have now figured out the issue for anyone curious. The original 6 jobs all have a salary amount that is not actually an option in the drop down menu. For one, the amount is not an option. And the others is because the higher amount in the salary does not have a $. You can fix the issue by simply updating the salary for each job on the edit job page. After that, the edit job page will display the correct salary. Again, thank you so much for the video, I learned a ton!

[@elranasher3708]

Awesome up to date tutorial. Thanks!

[@nyihtutlwin4107]

Finally, finish and complete this course!! Nice concepts

[@ichiroutakashima4503]

Hey, Brad. I just want to say thanks to your contents. Even though docs exists, I'm more of a visual learner. I had a hard time understanding the latest concepts of React Router and this video has simplified it.

[@someRandomNameHere]

I was searching for an updated React course ❤

[@TannerBarcelos]

Been a few months since writing UI at work (been doing a lot of backend stuff lately). I was a UI Engineer entering my current company but now I feel rusty. This was perfect to ramp back up for a project.

[@prabirroy4480]

Waiting for this video. Thank you 🙏

[@swapnilwadhankar983]

Can't wait to complete it ❤❤❤
