Where new video lessons?

Hi, I noticed all-new lessons (in JS at least) in TEXT format. They have 1-3 intro video and a lot of text lessons... For me, this is not what I'm looking for. The "text" I can read in official documentation... For example in the NEW lesson "React Hooks" intro doesn't have video just audio with a static picture...

Hi Slava,

These are all management decisions at Treehouse that are way above my level. But what I would say is that the content you see on Treehouse whether it be Video or quiz, code challenge, text instruction is well worth studying. With regard to the React Hooks course, it might well be they were limited as to what they could record at the time it was done due to the Covid pandemic. But I'm sure everything that was needed to be done to ensure there was no compromise on the learning content was done so do stick with it. :-)

Hi Jonathan, Thanks for your reply. But I noticed that a way more earlier. Please look at this lesson: https://teamtreehouse.com/library/react-authentication Posted more than a year ago. Course with only "text" lessons. same here: https://teamtreehouse.com/library/using-sql-orms-with-nodejs And yes I agree that they worth studying. I just noticed this at least for JS new courses. For me (nothing personal) "text" look cheaper than video and video better for understanding.
