It's a quick read, since most was not new to me. I can definitely tell that the author is very skilled and knows how to build apps. It's just unfortunate to have picked NextJS in this. I was expecting more a real React way, not using a meta framework. The title and subtitle also don't indicate anything else than pure React.

I enjoyed the book overall and have picked a couple interesting ideas out of it. It also covers some basic concepts, so beginner friendly. For me the most interesting part and why I picked it up was the API mocking. I was happy to read that part, although wished it was using Vitest instead of Jest. But in the end they both use sinonjs anyway so all good. I will definitely try out MSW in my next project. Thanks
