Learn how to use React.js with Ruby on Rails apps in this hands-on video course. Start with the fundamentals and build a clone of Eventbrite.
The course is very comprehensive and Hrishi is excellent at explaining everything in great detail. It starts with a simple Rails app which you migrate into React components, which gives you a great understanding of how much better a React approach is. I came into the course feeling overwhelmed by the React ecosystem, but I'm now feeling confident in my ability to move RankTracker's Rails views into React components.
You know Rails well. You've been using it for a while, at your job and for your own projects. You've got comfortable using jQuery on the frontend, and come to know its gotchas. Maybe you've dabbled in Angular or looked at Vue.
Recently, you came across React. Everyone's talking about it. Every other job post on Hacker News mentions it. So you decide to up your frontend game and learn it.
Maybe you've picked up the basics from some docs, blog posts and Youtube videos. It seems cool. But you're not sure if it's worth using it with Rails just yet.
It's all too confusing and intimidating. You thought React is just a frontend library, and you could just drop it in like jQuery. But then what's all this stuff about Babel, Webpack, ES6, Redux and five different gems for integrating with Rails.
It's too confusing, so you give up.
"jQuery works fine anyway", you think to yourself.
But you know you need to keep up with the times.
You might be able to get by without React for a few more months, but you know the next client or the next employer will want you to use it.
You won't be able to get that job or expand your freelance business unless you add React to your toolbelt.
You must get good at using React to make sure you get better work and earn more.

The course is wonderful, it's put together very well and helps both with understanding the theoretical concepts as well as their practical implementation. I've learned a lot from it and would recommend it to anyone, both seasoned developers and people who are just starting out.
I have always wanted to build single page application connecting a frontend React App with a backend Rails API application, even though I have tried to look through tutorials and blogs, it still feels so incomplete leaving me exhausted and unable to build something useful and working. with the course, The Complete React on Rails Course on the Learnetto platform I was able to build and deploy working applications even as someone without lots of experience.
