Like many devs, I imagine my first response to React was dismissal.
It's just another JavaScript trend that'll fade out fast

I started coding web and learning JS in an AngulaJS project. Now, moving to React made me learn more JS basics than Angular did. As a beginner I'd rather prefer now to learn frontend with React better than others...
I 100% agree there. It's the main reason I prefer learning with React, I'd rather learn the basics of the language instead of the specific framework. It brings much better long-term benefits with our career and what we learn.
Thanks for sharing Max. I agree with you, even though I have quite some experience with web development, in general, I think React makes you learn Javascript easily than Angular for example, the less magic, the better :)
Keep posting!
So, what you are trying to say is React is way better than Vue.js ?
The question I'm left with is, for a new project you are starting from scratch, disregarding the gains of learning something new (which could skew the response towards React), would the author pick Vue or React?
I think he's only trying to say that he likes React better :)
This would be correct :)
Yup... that's correct. As a Vue.js developer, I dont think one framework is better than other. Each one of it has its own cons and pros. Full support for vue <3
Well, I think it is.
After touch and go learning with multiple js frameworks i decided to focus on react because i read an article that it relied more on the language itself than magic, this led me down this rabbit hole of learning what the hell "this" actually meant to scopes and js functions and data manipulation, I have found myself running to pure js books and articles more than React focused ones and I thin It has made me a better programmer,there's still a lot i haven't yet understood but as I keep trying to make my daydreams into code the more i hit brain-mushing errors and learn something new
I've started learning React a few weeks ago but haven't had time to really start a project. I might try the Monty Hall Problem though, seems like an interesting and simple page to build.
I come from a Angular background, been working with it for over an year now. I'll admit that at first, React seemed more difficult than Angular, because before that, I used to work with C# and MVC, so it was more like that.
What made me want to learn React was that same article and the increasing amount of job offerings I have seen related to React/Native and Node.js.
The increased focus on it, both from developers and job listings, is also what got me interested at first too. It's definitely a change in thinking moving from frameworks like Angular to React, since you need to think in a much more modular. I recommend the below article from the main React site, it helped me a lot:
