This question would be better suited for the web development forum. That being said, I know years ago when I first was getting into React I went through some Pluralsight courses. These days there's also Udemy. Just pay for an online course or three. Any dev that takes their time to break everything down deserves a few bucks.

devenv.exe wrote: lifecycle methods Also, be aware that using life cycle methods are old and outdated. These days it's about using hooks. It's still worth learning though in case you either 1) run into old code or 2) want to use a class component rather than a functional one. Hooks are functional only.
Here's a couple topics to look into.
- State management. Learn Redux, no matter what a n00b says. Learn it. Trust me.
- Learn the Context API and its history. This was made in response to n00bs not liking redux. It's pretty cool, just don't abuse as doing so is no different than a crap design using global variables everywhere.
- Forget what you learned about the Context API. You'll now use hooks instead for shared state such as
useReducer . You'll be glad you trained up on Redux for this. And you'll know the whys and backstory to what we're doing now... which will set you apart. - And for all things pure, learn about generators in JS/TS. It's not specific to React, but gee golly so many people bash JS but have no early idea about what it can do.

So, other half needed a new laptop. Found a good deal (although slightly miffed that she now has a slightly better processor than me!) with £100 off the normal price. I attributed this to the small print that said it comes with Win 10 pre-installed. I can live with that.
However, when it turned up it was Win 11 and I got everything she needs working in pretty quick time with no dramas.
I had started Googling how to transfer Office licences to a new PC to see if it was possible with hers (wasn't sure if she had a lifetime licence or a one-install licence).
The machine came with the trial 365 activated so she could get on and do things whilst I was investigating. However, when she opened a file, instead of a shiny new 365 version (can't remember if it was Word or Excel) it opened up Office 2016 - which is what was installed on her old PC.
Could it possibly be that this was done via her Microsoft account and can it really be that simple? Or will her 2016 version suddenly vanish when the 365 trial period ends?
Just seems to good to be true for Microsoft ...

She can log into her Microsoft account and check. Also, she can start any office app and look at the about screen for the licensing information.

A new Laptop should -at least for me- be alive for at least three years.
Why should one bother to save £100 (and hours of headache) and not just buy a running one?

|
|
|
Office 2019 and earlier are tied to the PC; so, after the trial period, expect it to stop working.

I've long wanted to learn to play that on bagpipes. In fact, a few months ago, I bought bagpipes. I'm slow, but making progress!

My original plan, from 35 years ago, was to wait for a foggy night in the mountains, preferably moonless. Since I conveniently lived above a lake that was an easy 2.2 mile walk around the perimeter, I planned to take that walk around 3 AM with my pipes a' playing! Fog is disorienting, and a moonless night would make it hard to aim, just in case any of the neighbors might wake up a bit cranky.

Pass. But this kills me: "NASA calls Venus a “runaway global hothouse” Seriously, Venus is 100 million Km from the sun, just a bit closer. Next up Mercury, another runaway global hothouse.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
