After four years of drawing React illustrations, I'm finally properly learning React π
Incredible how long it took to talk myself out of the narrative "my brain wasn't built for programming." Weirdly believed I wasn't mentally capable. Turns out React is addictively fun.

It really is addictive. I had never done functional programming so the learning curve was steeper than most for me but once it started becoming muscle memory, dev became a lot more fun.

Yeah I feel you on the steep curve! I had never properly studied JS before last year so it was a whole tidal wave of new concepts π

So nice to learn from the ground up though. Much easier than my old methods of copy&paste spaghetti code lol

Yeah, JS can seem messy for a naked eye especially if you've written any other language. I envy the learning from scratch though. React stack in general in such a great and stable state (no pun interned) right now.
