Sophie is the bomb diggity

This week we are joined by Sophie Alpert, Head of Engineering at Humu, and former lead of the React Core team, to discuss her experience on being a very early adopter, contributor, and eventually maintainer of React.

Join us to hear about this epic journey, as well as Sophie’s thought’s on some common critiques and misconceptions of React.
