Ultimate Full-Stack Web Development with MERN: Design, Build, Test and Deploy Production-Grade Web Applications with MongoDB, Express, React and ... Stack Web Developer — MERN & Next.js Path)

This not only exceeded expectations but is a very intelligent, thorough, succinct book for something it's length, for all the aspects needed for a solid base framework to start MERN. Even more surprising, it has so few typo errors and information that works without sending you off to resolve on Stack Overflow or such. It's a quick and thorough read/run-thru through of MERN basic fundamentals that truly builds from scratch in every step of the way.

I did not enjoy this book. Some of the wording was strange, and some of the printed code used greater than/ less than symbols instead of quotes. Overall, this lead to a lot of frustration.

I was really enjoying the experience of this book, but became hung on the initial installation of Facebook's "create-react-app". Facebook has deprecated this code in it's entirety, and, so far, I haven't been able to get a clean install. Hoping the author will provide a work around! Or should I just send the book back and hope for something better to come along
