React Developers Don’t Exist
There is no such thing as a React developer — don’t ever call yourself that.
This is a huge mistake many software developers make that wastes so much of your time.
Focusing on tools instead of concepts. Losing sight of the big picture.
React is just a JavaScript tool. JavaScript is just a computing tool. Computing is just a problem-solving tool.
When I first started coding I was obsessed with languages and their specific syntaxes and APIs.
In fact once I hit a tiny learning roadblock I would switch to a new language expecting things to be different. And then again and again.
Not realizing that every language is fundamentally the same and built on the same core concepts!
- Input processing output storage.
- Selection sequence iteration.
- Data and actions: Create Read Update Delete (“everything is CRUD”).
- Divide & conquer: modules functions OOP…
There is no programming language anywhere that isn’t based on these core concepts. These are what you should focus on.
