Ask HN: What is the best resource to learn React for a Backend Developer?

I have experience of working in Ruby on Rails for more than 10 years. I have some knowledge of Javascript but I don't know React or Vue or any new JS library.

I see a lot the combination of Ruby on Rails with React so I decided I want to learn React and then maybe Vue.

So I am looking to buy a book or a course that could help me learn React (but not server side nodejs) as fast as possible.

I am looking at something where I can build a project with a medium difficulty. I tried in the past to learn Vue from some Udemy course and a book but I got bored with the pace of the resource. It was building something very simple and focused too much on Nodejs on Backend and React on Frontend.

What would you suggest? What worked for you?
