      Even the Main Concepts still deal almost exclusively with Class components reactjs.org/docs/state-and-lifecycle.html

    Hooks isn't introduced until after the Main Concepts, Advanced Guides, and API Docs... wild! reactjs.org/docs/hooks-intro.html

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

        which is totally fine if that's what they are going for! it was just quite surprising to me today when i went looking for info on the latest React 18 changes

          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/ 🤔
