machadop1407/React-Beginner-Course-2022
Companion code for a 2022 YouTube React beginner course by PedroTech. Each episode lives in its own branch. This is reference material for people following along with the video series, not a standalone learning resource.
- Branch-per-episode structure is clean — you can check out exactly the state of the code at any point in the course without hunting through commits
- 116 forks suggests it saw real classroom use; the pattern works for this kind of tutorial repo
- Completely useless without the YouTube playlist — there's no explanation of what any episode covers, no exercises, no written instructions
- React 2022 vintage means hooks are there but the ecosystem has moved on — some patterns taught here (Create React App, older state patterns) are now actively discouraged
- Last pushed January 2023, never updated — any dependency in package.json is over three years stale
- 202 stars for a course repo is low signal; it means most people watched the videos and never touched the code
