But the complexity is layered in my experience. You can get very far by reading the guide and changing the names in the DSL to make your app/dashboard/etc and then ship that same day, without really learning any new concepts. Of course when you have to do something new or make a maintainable app you still have your reading ahead of you, but the 0-1 I got my app to do what it needs is really easy-going (again, in my experience for my limited use cases)
