I sincerely regret spending time trying to read this "book".

There's a non-exhaustive list of what you'll encounter (sadly encountered if you're like me);

- The book is simply full of misspellings. I don't know how something like this can be advertised for sale.
- This editorial has hundreds of books. How can not they have a proofreading process? I could accept a couple of typos per chapter, but here every sentence has an error.
- The files used/edited don't have a clear path which results confusing and is prone to errors.
- The code is shared as images.
- Why? Why? This makes the ebook huge with no gain.
- Syntax highlight in the code from the images is completely broken.
- The author does not share the versions of the libraries used.
- You start a project simply by installing libraries as in `npm ...` but no version is ever shared and the package.json is simply non-existent.
- It won't hurt to have a single commented line at the top of every piece of code showing the name of the file being updated.
- The code is not consistent (sometimes you see double quotes, other times single quotes, semicolons yes, other times why bother)
- The code is updated but it's never communicated.
- Some parts of the code are simply wrong, changes done to other parts in the code is not communicated leaving you to figure out what and where's the error.
- To use `toBeInTheDocument` you need to first import `@testing-library/jest-dom`, this is nowhere told.
- Code simply disappears from files
- The content of the book is not well structured.
- Starting by writing code that will be deleted or discarded afterward without any mention.
- What happened with the indentation (?)

Perhaps the only part worth reading is the only chapter about optimization.

I hope I was the only one that had to go through this. I don't advise getting this book, nor reading it even if it's for free.

I don't know the author. But I sincerely hope he keeps writing, may this not be something to stop but to improve (and surely sign with a different editorial).
