Hi Samuel,

This differs a lot, and you might receive 10 replies here suggesting different things. There are no right and wrong ways.

How come you want to be specifically a React developer? This question is for yourself to answer to, no need to tell us here if you don't want to but make sure that you do know why! :)

Now, I'd recommend you to learn the basics first: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The front end web development track is great for this. Then I'd recommend you to go with the React track. And always try to apply the knowledge the courses teach you, don't sit and watch, create things even if they end up useless or bad (I still keep my first projects even if I can see hundreds of flaws in them, I am proud of knowing they got me to where I am today!). Knowledge tends to stick better when applied.

I hope this helps, and if you've got any questions just tag me and I'll see what I can do :)

Good luck!

Jonas
