A comment on Show HN: React for Beginners.

Without being an ass or criticizing the course (which seems very cool) I find it very strange that an experienced Javascript programmer would have a hard time learning React. Not that I am some master in it, but I've learned the basics on the official tutorial and some bits here and there over the internet and tweaking with it.

Also I don't think a begginer course will make everybody a master on the topic.

The website is called React for Beginners, not React for Experienced Javascript programmers.

And aside from that, react is very different from what a lot of experienced javascript developers may have worked with. My team works with CanJs, it would be a big leap to go from that to React, experience be damned.

You learn the basics, you don't learn how to structure your files, best practices in React and such. That's why I, an experienced javascript developer, bought this course. I intend to use React in a Meteor app.
