Hey Hashnode community, 👋
I am Michael Jackson. I co-authored React Router in 2014 and started React Training in 2015. I also built unpkg.com along the way.
I will be answering your questions live on Friday, September 27, 11 AM PDT / 18:00 GMT.
Ask me anything.
Which one will you suggest to learn between reach router and react-router? Can you explain the main different between them? Thanks.
How do you share your open source project words?. Like how do you get people to know about it.? I tried posting on twitter , reddit, and other platforms but didnt work so well (Yeah maybe my project was not so problem solving...)
How to stick to a plan.? I am getting new new projects idea every couple of days now and really want them to create but not able to kickstart them. how to convince yourself - "that your project idea is not worth it"
Hey Michael, thanks for the AMA. I'm really curious to know how you go about designing/making something. What is that process like for you?
What projects in the React community (that aren't from the React core team) are you most excited about?
What are some of the biggest A-Ha Moments you've witnessed in your students as you've taught React over the past few years?
What fun project/tool did you discover recently? Also, is there a tool you use that not a lot of people have heard about, but they should? 😃
Hi Michael,
What does your average day at work look like? Do you even have those days at all?
Hi Michael!
What's your background? Did you study computer science? Did you work in the industry before creating your own thing? How did you convince yourself that it was the right move?
Thanks 😀
What in React Router or other Open Source projects you maintain/follow could use the most help and why?
Hello, Michael, What do you thinking about firebase, coin and props? When do you suggest to use it in projects? And compering MERN stack vs Reacvt+Redux+Firebase which stack have a future or they not compete between ?
What inspired the creation of ReactTraining ?
I see that you offer courses, expert training and workshops on React, what plans do you have or have in place already to encourage and support underrepresented groups.
You said no holding back so here it goes: how can you continue to host workshops about react hooks when react-router still doesn’t have a hooks API. (sent with ❤️ )
React or Vue or something else? Which frontend framework/library are you using in your upcoming projects?
unpkg is awesome. How did you come up with the idea? What motivated you?
Hi Michael, Thanks for hosting the AMA. What are your key takeaways from creating and maintaining popular open-source projects like React Router?

Hi, Michael, thanks for you work. Unpkg declaring itself as opensource project, but there is no repositories in Unpkg organization on Github. It's not open source anymore or yet?
