I've done several previous iterations of an "Intro to React + Redux" presentation. The last one I did was back in 2018, and a lot has changed for both React and Redux since then. In particular, React Hooks have changed how we write React code, Redux Toolkit is now the standard approach for writing Redux logic, and the React-Redux hooks API is now the default.

I've updated this presentation to teach React hooks instead of classes, filled out additional examples, and added material on Redux Toolkit and the React-Redux hooks. I've also included my intro to TS section as well, and expanded that to include advice on using TS with React and Redux.

I've also published a copy of the slides as a PDF, per request:
