A Udemy course teaching Riot.js, a lightweight JavaScript UI framework, covering its core concepts and how to build front-end apps with it. Commenters describe it as a synthesis of the framework's concepts beyond the official docs.
Commenters say it was very helpful for pulling together Riot's concepts, and that the instructor Ray makes getting up to speed quick.

I can understand to a certain extent the need for advanced (complex) frameworks like React, Vue, Ember etc... if you're working on a sizable team and really complex front-end application. However if like me, you're used to the simplicity of Backbone.js you end up very quickly getting a tad frustrated with the hoops and loops you have to jump though to wrap your head around the frameworks and the development setup they all encourage you to use (webpack, framework cli, ...)
I've finally settled on Riot.js. It's easier in my opinion to consume in morsels and build up your development workflow anyway you see fit. I must say although the online documentation is good enough to get you going, I found the "Master Riot" course [0] was very helpful in synthesizing all the various concepts.

Edit: Seems the course is no longer free but I think for $10, it's still very much worth it. Ray is a great instructor and really makes getting up to speed on the framework a breeze.
