Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I don't disagree with your points. However, using React for making the UI portion of your game is still using React for game dev. The default would have been to just make your UI within the canvas itself.

Now in the post, I explained that considering option 1) Using React for the game rendering vs 2) Using React only for the UI, I went with 2) and explained why.

However, I want to thank you for explaining why React is unsuitable for rendering the game itself.


I also discovered that it's possible use the love2D library with this to make games in typescript!

Does Obsidian have code search features?


YouTube's recommendation system could be a distraction or harmful for kids but I agree that I would probably just do a YouTube playlist myself.

Also in terms of UX. I think YouTube playlists aren't that great so there is potential to improve that.


Thanks for the feedback!


Thanks for catching this. Will correct it ASAP.


Thanks!

I created this portfolio website for my YouTube channel. That's why I haven't put my info there. It's meant more as a template.

If you're interested in learning how I built this project:
