Introduction to The Beginner's Guide to ReactJS

Hye Kent, i am facing issues with VS code intellisense , i cannot automatically see the React and React DOM helper methods as they are popping up in your editor, any clues to this, do i need to use typings . as of now i am just following the very first tutorial of yours. Also when i tried to use typings command, npm logs that typings are deprecated in favor of @types

Hi diwyanshu, It's probably because vscode can't resolve the types for dependencies that are added as script tags. I wouldn't worry so much about it at this point. In a real scenario, you're going to be building applications with npm and the types will come in that situation. Good luck!

Hi, my react does not work when I use cdn links, but using the create-react-app works perfectly. please why is this?

Hi NbuduisiO,

I'm not sure what it could be. But if it's working with create-react-app then you're set because that's what you'll want to use to build real applications anyway.

Hi, how do i access the starter files for each of the modules in this course?

Hey Kent C., hope you doing great.

Just want it to point that there is an error in the transcript, at 01.46 minutes of the video, just at the end of the paragraph, it is not nullify as it says.

Chibuzor, there are no starter files. When I recorded it I just took the relevant file from https://github.com/eggheadio-projects/the-beginner-s-guide-to-reactjs and removed the code I needed to get things started.

you had a link where I could download atom

Hi Vernon, I've actually switched to VSCode as my primary editor and I recommend it. You can download it here: https://code.visualstudio.com

How does this course compares to the free version on https://egghead.io/courses/the-beginner-s-guide-to-react

Unclear which course should I do today (2022)?

This one's older and useful if you need to learn how to work with older React code (code that uses classes). For modern React, you should go with https://kcd.im/beginner-react (the one you referenced).

Makes sense, thanks for the super prompt reply!
