Best Resources to Be React and React Native Developer in 2021

Hi my friend thank you for benign here, so as you know I’m self-taught so I learn all technologies by myself so I will tell you how to learn and grow faster and some mistakes I had done in my journey of learning also some best Resources and if you can’t afford the price of this courses just get in touch with me I will help you.  
In the last of this article, I will provide courses that cover all the topics I will talk about it

Thing you should learn 

Html :  Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. so thing to Learn about it :learn the basics , form Validation, semantic HTML  

Css :  Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language such as HTML. With CSS you can add some cool design and animation to a web page, so thing to Learn about it : learn basics, making layouts (Box Model, flex Box, Grid, positioning, display ), make Responsive design  and media queries 

JavaScript : To create dynamic applications you will need Javascript, javascript is the scripting language for web pages supporting Object Oriented Programming And function Programming Things to learn :Syntax and basic constructs , Dom Manipulation , fetch(api) / ajax (xhr) ,Es6 +  , best practices , hoisting  , how JavaScript Works , web Apis , event loop....

Git : is version Control system learn only  the basics 

Package Manager :  Npm and Yarn 
 
Module bundlers : Webpack, parcel, 

React :  React is an open-source, and JavaScript library for building user interfaces or UI components. It is maintained by Facebook and a community of individual developers and companies. React can be used as a base in the development of single-page or mobile applications Things you should learn: what is React and ReactDom  and how it’s work, JSX,   how to build custom components, hooks, Context Api, Routes, Redux, 

Modern Css :  Styled components, CSS Modules 

Css Frameworks :  we have two  types of framework one came with javaScript it’s better when you are working with a framework of javascript shus as: Material Ui, ReactStrap, Tailwind. Another one is CSS first frameworks which don't come with javascript Components by default 

Testing :  learn the difference between unit, integration, and functional tests and learn how to write them with some tools like: Jest, Enzyme….

Server Side rendering :  Server-side rendering (SSR) is a popular technique for rendering a client-side single page application (SPA) on the server and then sending a fully rendered page to the client. This allows for dynamic components to be served as static HTML markup. This approach can be useful for search engine optimization (SEO) when indexing does not handle JavaScript properly. You should learn about Next.js 

static site generator :  you should learn about  Next.js and Gatsby

React Native :  React Native is an open-source mobile application framework created by Facebook, Inc. It is used to develop applications for Android, Android TV, iOS, macOS, tvOS, Web, Windows, and UWP by enabling developers to use React's framework along with native platform capabilities.

GraphQL: GraphQL is an open-source data query and manipulation language for APIs, and a runtime for fulfilling queries with existing data. GraphQL was developed internally by Facebook in 2012 before being publicly released in 2015

Best Way To Learn :

Second, always try to create side projects, because when you try to create new projects you will face many challenges and problems and you will try to fix them and this is the best one.
