Thank you, I wanted so much to find this kind of tutorial, tooling in React is just cumbersome, opinionated and tiresome.

Sure!

This is just a simple and basic example, to get hands on react. I don’t recommend this on production btw.

I guess the best approach to learn react in today is using create-react-app.

Yes, absolutely, it's just that you don't teach someone to swim at the deep end of the pool, you get just as scared when learning these new ideas and concepts, so (in my case anyways) I would have just dropped it a few weeks ago, I'll just keep going now.

Sure! Another great resource it's using CodeSandbox.com, stackblitz.com or Repl.it. They offer a good environment to start coding on the fly.
