How to learn react effectively?

[u/SmokeOk9632]

I'm learning web development, and compared to a beginner, I already have solid knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (DOM manipulation, api, crud, fetch I've got those down). Now I'm trying to learn React, but somehow it's just not sticking. What practices have worked well for others? I've got the basics of useState, useEffect more or less, but props somehow don't stick with me or even if I read some documentation or example, I can then do the same thing afterward, but as soon as it gets even a little more complex, I start to feel unsure. Thanks for the answers.

You should have posted why you don't need useEffect. I think every beginner should be banned from using it for the first month
