How Fast Can You Learn React?

Man all that complaining is annoying to read.

Someone (s) said something about 5 minutes and the author clearly knows that isn't accurate but then goes on about it.

>I doubt there is anything under the Sun one is able to learn in 5 minutes

That should have been the start and end of the story. It is just personal nitpicking and silly pics after that.

I don't know, I guess literally disagreeing with "learn React in 5 minutes" undermines his point, but he does have a point. There are a lot of "non-technical" people out there who want/need (or at least think they want/need) web development to be really easy and really cheap, and when they see "learn React in 5 minutes/learn React in 8 minutes/learn React in an afternoon" and you or I say, "I've been looking at React for a few weeks now and I'm just starting to get the hang of it", they think we're either incompetent or (more likely) lying.

Learn "x" in 5 minutes is pure clickbait which we still click on in the hopes someone explains just one of the dozens or more concepts in 5 minutes or at least in a quick time. I click some of these links while knowing it's pure deception, but it;s not always, it's like a lottery

I don't feel like he addresses that piont very well if that was the point.

More so it is just a rant about it indirectly and then complains about react as well.
