Learning React: A Hands-On Guide to Building Web Applications Using React and Redux

The "Learning React" book is an ideal starting point for those who want to learn React. It provides a deep insight into the basics of React with hands-on examples and enables you to create a web-based application. The book's language is easy to understand, which makes it perfect for students and beginners. However, experienced developers might find it invaluable as well. Although the book is positive overall, there are various limitations. The author should extend the book to address more topics and integration with backend technologies. The order of items is not ideal, with coding the high-level classes occurring first before creating the detailed components. The Redux chapters are also brief and incomplete, so those not familiar with the framework might have difficulty understanding how all the different parts work together. In the end, the book provides a great deep dive into React. Each chapter is quite brief, and applying the authors' examples takes less than 30 minutes, which makes it easy to go through. While there are several limitations to it, specially the editing flaws, it will obtain you a good general overview of React, making it an excellent read for those that are starting to learn the framework.
