State of React 2023

साधन (रिसोर्सेज)

One of the big reason for React's continued dominance is the sheer amount of documentation, blog posts, videos, and other resources it has accumulated over the years. Here's just a small sample!

Learning Methods

The React team has done a great job with the new React docs site, so it shouldn't be surprised that it has become the number one way people learn about the framework.

ब्लॉग और पत्रिकाएं

While this list is populated by many usual suspects, it's worth celebrating the presence of React-specific media such as This Week in React or React Status.

पॉडकास्ट

Syntax continues to assert its dominance over the dev podcast landscape. Also interesting to note the lack of any active React-specific podcast in the top 10.

We asked members of the React community to share their “pick of the year”

My 2023 Pick: Expo Router

Expo Router earns my pick for its incredible potential in both the web and native space. It's the first framework to leverage React's full power to operate across all platforms, making React a true platform-agnostic renderer. Its file-based architecture makes it simpler for web developers to adapt to native platforms, speeding up development, and reducing the time to ship across all devices.

Video Creators

While Theo and Web Dev Simplified both featured React content, it's interesting to note that despite not typically covering React, The Primeagen still comes in at #3.

People

When it comes to being an influential figure in the React community, it's no surprise that Dan Abramov tops the rankings – Although Kent C. Dodds and Theo both seem to be challenging for the crown.
