Nice to see a fellow British developer. A welcome change from the usual videos from our friends across the pond. 😂

Hej Ted, I really appreciate this style of videos! Learning or improving another language can be really boring / annoying when you already have expert-level knowledge in another, since most tutorials are very basic and designed for beginners. So this style of building on that knowledge and transferring it to another eco system is very helpful. Thanks!

Brilliant Idea. Even i not used WPF at all, i could learn quiet a bit about how React works.

I'm just starting on React/Typescript but I'm surprised to see class components which I believe are now outdated in favour of functional components.

I will never understand why people love react to be honest it is very annoying to work with and the workflow makes no sense, the only reason they use it because it is popular and it is used by Meta team and have jobs, if microsoft blazor will be fast no one will use react, the work flow is simple the C# language is amazing and very easy and simple to work with
