Best course to master the React on Udemy?

I'm looking to seriously level up my React skills and want to invest in a good Udemy course. There are so many options (Maximilian Schwarzmüller, Stephen Grider, Academind, etc.), and I'm not sure which one actually goes deep enough vs. just covering the basics.

A few things I care about:

Strong coverage of hooks, context API, and state management (Redux/Zustand)
Real-world project building, not just toy examples
Up-to-date content (React 18/19, functional components, no outdated class-based stuff)
Good explanation of performance optimization and testing

Has anyone here taken a course that genuinely helped them get job-ready or land a React role? Would love to hear your recommendations, along with what you liked/disliked about it. Bonus points if you can mention how long ago you took it, since Udemy courses can go stale fast.
