Just wanted to say I'm a 39 yo man who currently enrolled into a school for software engineering. I often refer to your videos, and they have helped me maintain a perfect score so far in school. Thank you so much for these!!!!

How is it possible for you to explain something in 15 minutes that I didn't understand from hours of watching other videos? You've seriously got a gift for teaching, and I feel like I have a much better comprehension of useState now. Thank you!

my name is kyle and my job is to simplify the web for you so that u can start building your dream projects sooner
love this sentence

[nowthisisfuuun]

Man, I don’t think there’s anyone who can explain concepts as simple and eloquent as you. Absolutely love your work!

[masonmarinko]

This was amazing, getting into react for last part of our boot camp and it goes so fast they don't always go in depth, this made sense, and has helped me a LOT, thank you so much!!

This was such a good tutorial. It actually explained everything methodically and using simple examples, without treating the viewer like an idiot. I love this channel.

You've got a phenomenal teaching style, Kyle. I can tell you always put in the time for proper preparation for your videos by how structured and easy to comprehend they are. As always, another excellent video, thanks!

Thanks for the explanation, it's very easy to follow this way. I must admit I laughed at the typo at 5:57 but you recovered nicely

I've been using react for over 4 years and off course am very comfortable with class components. Am currently adding to an existing application and decided to see what all the fuss was with functional components and hooks. Your 15 minutes on the nuance of basic concepts behind setState has been very helpful. Good video.

SMAL NOTE: 10:53 if you call function by reference, so "useState(countInitial)", so WITHOUT BRACKETS, the function will be called only once. Greate tutorial, great explanations, great teacher! Keep going!

[narasimhakamath]

Really love how you take some really simple example to explain these concepts instead of overthinking or over complicating things. Awesome stuff!

[BJAnderson]

Today was one of those days where I needed to learn something new, and instead of searching for hours... First search, first click, and 15 minutes later - learning accomplished.
Thank you very much.
Great tutorial!

10:57 highlight for running vs referencing any initial function is so nice. Also appreciating the attention to variable de-structuring syntax, way beyond notation purposes, as noticed below.

[pauljmorton]

Finally somebody actually explained what the hell the "const [thing, otherthing] = stuff" syntax actually does, instead of saying "it's just some ES6 magic syntax".

[flexrumblecrunch]

Your teaching skills are so well adapted to abstract concepts like coding. I think that you've got a real knack for addressing the questions that naturally pop into people's heads as they grasp this content, nice work! This cleared up a lot of things for me in such a short amount of time, easiest sub of my life.

Best explanation I have seen so far about useState, and you do a fantastic job explaining even the edge topics like hooks order, fragmented state, etc. I really loved this video, man. Subscribed!

[shawnxia]

Havn't seen a guy who explains useState better than you. Subscribed.

[irieyaadricx]

I appreciate the explanation of the overlooked things that are usually.. 'Just done this way'

[marineoceania]

As a veteran JS user for YEARS, I needed a crash course in React; your videos have been INCREDIBLY helpful! Thanks for doing this :D

[hellosugaree]

Brilliant as always. These narrow topic mini videos have become an essential tool for filling in gaps where I need to learn the why behind the how. 💜
