I have an internship starting in a week and I was assigned to a project that largely involves frontend development, despite my lack of experience in web development. I'm feeling pretty frustrated because this role was supposed to be full-stack, and I have no idea why I was chosen for it. Now, I need to learn React and TypeScript from scratch within a week if I want to have a chance at receiving a return offer. I'm looking for any recommendations for tutorials or crash courses available on YouTube or Udemy, and I'm open to paying for good material. (Please, no self-promotion.)

You might want to look into Maximilian Schwarzmüller's materials. He has a great book on React and also provides tutorials on Udemy. I once used both to rapidly learn React for a work project in a week—definitely worth it! Regardless of whether you’re focusing on frontend or full-stack, knowing React is crucial.
Honestly, there aren’t really any shortcuts. Just learn as you go, and I suggest checking out the course by Jonas on Udemy; it’s pretty comprehensive.

Max's Udemy course is fantastic. If I had just a week, I’d spend a few hours daily on his content; it would give you a solid foundation.
