Before meeting Kent, I was well versed in JS and intermediate in React. After going through his content (EpicReact + TestingJavaScript), asking questions in Discord and office hours, I learned so much that at the end I wrote my own book on React & test driven design!

KCD meetup group was my entry point to the world of streaming! There I shared topics related with Accessibility, which was very interesting in a community mostly focus on JS/React. A lot of interesting topics were explored after each meetup.

These meetups also gave me the confidence I needed to start streaming on other platforms (eg Twitch). Thank you Kent for that open door!

Epic Web Discord Community is the best community out there. When I first joined the server I was amazed by the environment that I was in! Curated channels, great moderation, and great people to help you all the time. It made me feel like home <3

Kent's educational content has been a continual font of inspiration and knowledge for me to draw upon over the years. After years of work, I was promoted to Senior Engineer and he's been a cornerstone of my professional development, and I consider him a giant upon whose shoulders I proudly stand.

So I'd like to thank Kent for all of his contributions to the industry, and for striving to make it - and the world - a better place.

I was able to use what I learned from TestingJavaScript.com to make productive changes in the testing culture in the team. The small video lessons that focus on topics are convenient to search and find the answer to the specific problems I had with testing.

I went from developing in Angular to React in weeks. Epic React gave me everything I needed to know to walk into my new company and be on par with my coworkers that have been working here for years. The course is an investment but worth it! It doesn’t just tell you what to do, but it explains how to do it and why.

Most of my knowledge of React came from hands on experience at work, but there was so much to learn in Kent’s epicreact.dev! It was extremely impactful in my career. I find myself coming back to the materials many times to review and tune up my skills.

We were able to implement multiple of the patterns and concepts from the workshop, increasing test coverage, code quality, and overall user experience in multiple products.

I'm still in the first steps of EpicWeb but the platform alone says how much care and thought gone into it. When Kent says "it's not meant for passive consumption," he means it and delivers an awesome active learning experience. I've gone through multiple courses, but this one clearly raises the bar (and probably ruins others ones for me 😆). It kinda feels like coming back to a classroom with a teacher and exercises to be done in the best way possible.

After signing up to EpicReact, I gained a lot of knowledge regarding advanced things in React, and that helped me to double my salary in less than 2 years.

Now I feel confident to use fancy things like compound components, context module functions or prop collectors. EpicReact was the little push that I needed.

Alan Medina profile

Coming from a Ruby on Rails background, I had to pretty much learn React on the job and it was always hard to find the right patterns and don't even get me started on testing! After taking both EpicReact and TestingJs courses I got a much better understanding of the tradeoffs and benefits of each pattern and on the road I also had fun learning fundamental web things I inadvertedly had been neglecting. KCD takes you back from Tutorial Hell!

Kent's EpicWeb.dev workshops redefine frontend development. Boasting a curriculum that spans from Full Stack essentials to specialized areas like data modeling, it's the pinnacle of tech education. Kent's cutting-edge platform merges real-world coding exercises into the learning experience. Skip the theory; this is hands-on, practical wisdom. For anyone committed to mastering frontend, the value here is unbeatable.

I can say that without a doubt, and I ain't kidding here, I wouldn't be where I am today in my career without Kent's dedication and penchant for creating amazing learning material. After almost 4 years of learning from him, you'd think I'd stop being surprised with how great a job he does developing courses, but here I am again, surprised and blown away by the experience I'm having on EpicWeb.dev. The experience of learning on EpicWeb.dev is in a league of its own.

Whilst job searching, I knew I had to improve my React skills beyond what I'd picked up doing my own projects. Thanks to Kent's workshop, I was able to fill in any gaps in my knowledge, which led to me being hired for my first Software Engineering role.

His teachings are cohesive and objective, pointing out best practices and their inevitable drawbacks. I look forward to seeing his future work for the developer community!

If I were to choose one word to describe the Epic React Course, that would be "Masterpiece". Not only because it shares so much invaluable information and approaches on the topics that are elaborated, but also the way how the workshops are built in; first encouraging the attendant to understand the problem and pushing them forward to find a solution (with the help of guides and tips), and then showing an alternative and genuine approach to the same problem. Thank you for this amazing learning experience, Kent!

Just wanted to say I finished the full Epic React and am very happy with the results. I can finally understand a codebase I've been working on for a few years primarily written by another god-tier React developer.

It was a super challenging codebase to follow before but Epic React touched on every essential concept and now I no longer feel lost.

I had to re-train Front End after switching from Angular and I must say this class has made it possible for me to re-tool and re-skill without getting too discouraged by how much time it would normally take. THANK YOU KENT! You are an AMAZING teacher!

I've had the pleasure to attend Kent's - Advanced React Hooks, back in 2020 and it was such a insightful course. Kent has a knack of breaking complex subjects which are easier for every developer to understand.

His workshops are worth the investment Even topics like - Concurrency, memo, callbacks & effects, which would otherwise be daunting to completely comprehend, are simplified. Highly recommend his workshops and his website - epicreact.dev

I started my career as a Junior frontend developer but CSS and JS couldn't get me far. That's when I found Kent. He gave me the resources I needed to take my skills to a much higher level to be able to offer far more. It was like years of career experience packed into just several hours and I got generous help via discord or office hours when I was stuck.

I started freelancing by offering to build full-stack web applications for people, using the most modern techniques, built from The-Epic-Stack which I can confidently work with because it I studied it directly in the course!

I refer to EpicReact.dev and EpicWeb.dev almost as much as I refer to MDN it's that useful.

Epic React gave me a lot more confidence as a developer and I was able to directly apply what I learned at my job. Not only do I produce higher quality code, but I'm also more capable at code reviews and better at sharing knowledge with others.

If you are self-motivated and want to deepen your understanding then this is a phenomenal workshop that will pay off tenfold. I had about 3 years of experience working with React prior to taking the workshop and not long after completing it I got a promotion - I attribute a lot of my success to the things I learned in Epic React!

Epic React and Testing JavaScript are amazing resources. Coming out of a coding bootcamp, I felt like I had gaps in my depth of knowledge regarding React and Testing principles.

You can call me an Epic React 🥑 (Advocate), there is no better React course around. Kent's approach to teaching is the one that resonates the most with me. The pacing is amazing and he really focus on practice.

This course helped me understand React at a much deeper level. It builds up in the fundamentals and progress extremely well into the advanced topics. Best course investment I made to date.

I was able to get my most recent job through a friend I met in there. Not only is it great for all dev things, it's a great place to meet some really kind people and make friends. I am really appreciative of the work Kent has put in to taking care of his community.

Even as a dev with many years of experience building production apps in React, I still learned a lot from EpicReact. The advanced patterns was especially useful to me as it formalized some patterns I've seen in the wild but never really understood.

There's a lot of stuff in this course I keep coming back to. The biggest takeaway for me has been how much it's helped me formalize my understanding in React. Kent offers first principles of React fundamentals and systematizing React composition patterns that help get a handle on React.
