React Is Hard but Not for the Reasons You Think
summary
A live-coding session builds a small React app in CodeSandbox that fetches the 30 worst IMDb movies, manages global state with Overmind, adds a like button that increments and disables when nonzero, and animates the UI using framer-motion. The talk shows the exact fetch and reducer code, the immutable derived sorting logic, and the debugging steps that fixed live-edit issues so the app renders and the like button functions.
