React Module - Front End Libraries

Hello, I started studying the Front End Libraries React Module and some concepts are different from what I learned previously from Angela Yu’s Web Dev Course.
Is the React Module up to date?
I got confused seeing that code a little bit :sweat_smile:

Hello!

No, it isn’t up to date. Classes for example are rarely used anymore, hooks are dominant now, some of the syntax is deprecated. React has changed since the course went online.

It’s still worth learning, some concepts like the Virtual DOM are still the same and in case you should ever get legacy React code to work on.

Thanks for the Info.
Can you suggest some Resources to learn React if possible?

Someone here on freeCodeCamp suggested this:

I am currently going through it and find it really good - it is a couple of years old so I don’t know if there have been any changes to React since then.

If you want to play it safe, consider the React docs for learning:

React now includes server side components after focusing on the client side for a decade. Look for tutorials featuring server side components to stay up to date.
