Nice explanation , I just want to add one line please add few more session about how to implement react without using react library. I will give us more deep view of react and it's internal algo.

By Abduraheem on 8/22/2025

The instructor’s English makes the course a bit harder to follow, and topics keep getting updated and added continuously, which makes the course feel bloated and almost unfinishable. It would benefit from more interactive elements like quizzes and challenges instead of only coding walkthroughs.

By Owen McGregor on 5/21/2025

My only complaint is that the you switch screens too fast after writing some code. Often you don't even pause for half a second so that I can attempt to pause the recording to see what you wrote.

Great teacher that provides a lot of knowledge. His method of taching is very good. He not only teaches concept also performs a lot of practical work including 2 projects and many quizzes exercise. Only drawback is course is little older due to which I face some issues and did not get response from Q/As section. In short, course is great.

By Sri Harsha on 4/8/2025

The concepts are explained really well. With practical examples. May components explained are fundamental building blocks, using which we can accelerate our development easily. Thanks for wonderful course.

Great learning experience! The quizzes and coding exercises were engaging, and the to-do list along with the AI chatbot projects were incredibly helpful and immersive.

By Stanislav Petrov on 3/19/2025

I just finished the React Crash Course: From Zero to Hero, and it was a great learning experience. The instructor explained React concepts like Components, State, and Hooks clearly, with hands-on projects that made learning practical. I now feel confident building React apps and highly recommend this course to beginners !

By Kevin Rauer on 3/16/2025

This is an absolutely amazing coarse. I started with nothing, and I am now starting to write my first app. I also love that added into into AI Apps that we can implement, and also the dark mode trick!! Most of all I like most ran into issues, which I posted in the Q/A and it was quickly solved and I was back on my learning path!! Excited to implement what I have learned!

By Andrii Olieinik on 2/2/2025

Thank you so much for this concise yet comprehensive course—it was exactly what I needed. While the author can still improve their English, the overall content is excellent. One suggestion would be to add more practice exercises (for example, building an interactive to-do list or other live coding tasks in React). However, I understand that might go beyond this course’s scope, so I appreciate its concise approach. Thank you again!

By Anonymized User on 1/24/2025

I learnt a lot from this course in such a short duration. It gave me a great jumpstart. It mostly covers all the topics with adequate explanations to get you started. His accent might be slightly difficult to understand at some places, but it is mostly manageable. Specially, what sounds like 'distraction' (the same is generated in the subtitles as well) is actually 'destructuring'.
