        The docs appear written for someone who has watched the React ecosystem evolve over many years, not for someone new to the framework

            Having sat through multiple interviews though (on both sides of the interview), I definitely get the feeling companies are not looking for people with intense React Class component authoring skills

              It's like if the @angular docs waited until after the full angularjs.org/ to start mentioning angular.io/ 🤔
