Is there a money back guarantee? Yes, there is 100% money back if you don't think it's a good fit. Please reach out to me to get a refund.
Does the content evolve? I will keep the content up to date with recent best practices, concepts and patterns. When there are new versions of libraries, I will do my best to keep it reflected in the content. Keen to hear your thoughts about possible things to improve/enrich the learning experience.
How can I get help while taking a course? The courses have an official Slack Group. You can join the channel to get help or to help others.
Can I help to improve the content? Yes, I would love to hear your feedback. Once again, please reach out to me. These can be improvements technical wise yet also about the written word.
What should I do when I cannot afford to pay for a course? If you cannot afford a course but want to learn about the topic, you can reach out to me. It could be that you are still a student or that the course would be too expensive in your country. Otherwise, you could also use Patreon to support me and unlock course content over time. In addition, I want to support any cause to improve the diversity in our culture of developers. If you belong to a minority or are in an organization that supports diversity, please reach out to me.
Can I support the project? If you believe in the content that I create, you can support me. Furthermore, I would be grateful if you spread the word about these courses if they helped you to learn about React.
Is there a call to action? Yes. I want you to take a moment to think about a person who would be a good match to learn React. The person could have shown the interest already, could be in the middle of learning React or might not yet be aware about wanting to learn React. Reach out to that person and share the courses. It would mean a lot to me.
What's your motivation behind this platform? I want to teach about React in a consistent way. You often find material online that doesn't receive any updates or only teaches a small part of a topic. When you learn something new, people struggle to find consistent and up-to-date resources to learn from. I want to give you this consistent and up-to-date learning experience. In addition, I hope I can support minorities with my projects by giving them the content for free or by having other impacts. In addition, in the recent time, I found myself fulfilled when teaching others about programming. It's a meaningful activity for me that I prefer over any other 9 to 5 job.
About the Author
Robin Wieruch is a german software and web engineer who is dedicated to learn and teach programming in JavaScript. After graduating from university with a masters degree in computer science, he hasn't stopped learning every day on his own. His experiences from the startup world, where he used JavaScript excessively during his professional time and spare time, gave him the opportunity to teach others about these topics.
For a few years, Robin worked closely with a great team of engineers at a company called Small Improvements on a large scale application. The company builds a SaaS product enabling customers to create a feedback culture at their company. Under the hood, the application worked with JavaScript in the frontend and Java in the backend. In the frontend, the first iteration was written in Java with the Wicket Framework and jQuery. When the first generation of SPAs became popular, the company migrated to Angular 1.x for the frontend application. After using Angular for more than 2 years, it became clear that Angular wasn't the best solution to work with state intense applications back in the days. That's why the company made the final jump to React and Redux that has enabled it to operate on a large scale successfully.
During his time in the company, Robin regularly wrote articles about web development on his personal website. He noticed that people would give him great feedback on his articles that allowed him to improve his writing and teaching style. Article after article, Robin grew in his ability to teach others. Whereas the first article was packed with too much stuff that could be quite overwhelming for students, the articles improved over time by focussing and teaching only one subject.
Nowadays, Robin is self-employed to teach others. He finds it a fulfilling activity to see students thrive by giving them clear objectives and a short feedback loop. But without coding himself he wouldn't be able to teach things. That's why he invests his remaining time in programming. You can find more information about Robin and ways to support him on his website.
