Deprecated code and updating references to ES6 was some of my bigger challenges. I also find the documentation from many of the add-on libraries to be vague.
Finding examples and referencing the React github https://facebook.github.io/react/ is the best solution. Its still hard for me to wrap my head around the usage of refs and props but with more practice I believe this will become easier.
