Great tutorial, @jonathanbossenger--informative and easy to understand.

I had difficulty watching the video (I tried multiple broswers). Since this happened to other people with a few other videos, it might be helpful to add an alternative link.

Other than that, there were a bunch of audio problems:

• At 3:10 and 3:14 there are repetitions "For now, update the component to return...".
• This happens again at 4:01, with "you probably don't want to hardcode...".
• There's a sound issue at 4:09 and again at 5:30.
• There's a silence in 6:22-6:31, and then you start with a variation of the same sentence. This happens again a bit later and only starts "clean" at 6:55.
• There are a few "false starts" again at 7:35 until 7:46, and a few seconds later it happens again with another sentence.
• and again at 8:29 and at 9:18-9:19 :-)
• It seems like there's an outro missing

Thanks for the review @ironnysh. It seems that some of my edits either didn't save, or exported incorrectly. So I've reexported the video, and the bugs should now be fixed.

I had difficulty watching the video (I tried multiple broswers). Since this happened to other people with a few other videos, it might be helpful to add an alternative link.

It was reported to me that some of the other videos were running at a very low framerate. This seems to also have been fixed, but let me know if you see it with newer videos.
