Their suggestion is in this sentence:

> When one actively uses something, there is a natural spaced repetition of the things that matter.

So if you're trying to learn react, don't try to memorize the API. Just use react and you'll naturally have spaced repetition of the important bits. The unimportant bits that are rarely used you'll have to google when you occasionally need them.
