React solves the complexity of the dynamic UI development and more. To be a Web Developer in demand therefore it is crucial to be able to program in React. Despite React is merely another JavaScript library (with the emphasis on TypeScript, and so for all the right reasons) it is not so easy to learn it by just skipping through blog posts. React has an arguably unique programming model or paradigm that is not so easy at first to master.
A book like React in Depth becomes invaluable by filling the voids I found left out by the so many blog posts a search away. Many posts - but hard to assemble to get a project going.
This book helps immensely to start without panic and progress towards building several mature and quite a for show off web sites. Well, your choice to show or not.
I personally was initially taken aback by some rough edges of React, struggled with hooks and the callbacks. This book smooths these sharp edges.
At the end I liked React even more, as the centricity and immutability of data in it, elegant and expressive syntax, function-first way of thinking. Most things in React just work, be it unit testing, deployments (again, harder without the book, as Hydration is a tricky beast) or accessing a database.
In closing, I can't say what else this book on React should have covered or improved, but I am sure more editions with follow, so I give it a five.

This book is very amazing. It can explain all the facets of the React features from simple CSS to more complex components framework, but also the different layer of the application with different technology you can implement, and those in a very simple but pragmatic way. But that’s not enough. It let you take your own choices after explaining the pros and cons underpinned with multiple use cases and illustrated by best practices (as for clearly detailed pattern) and limitations and pitfalls. at last but not the least, this approach is completed by professional and industrial matters, I mean that the scalability, security, maintainability, fluidity among other things are taking in account
This work is a mastery in the domain, a must to have and a must to read
