React 19.3.0 shipped 2026-09-09 and npm has tagged it latest since. It is a minor release that adds features and removes nothing, so a React 19 course still teaches current React. Install whatever npm create vite@latest gives you, which resolves to 19.3.0, and keep react and react-dom on the exact same version.

Yes, React is still worth learning in 2026, and the jobs data is not close. The qualifier that matters is which React: the version worth your months is React 19 with hooks and the App Router, not the class-component React most older free tutorials still teach. Pick the wrong tutorial and you learn 2021 React. Pick the right one and you learn the React that gets interviews.
