Don't be harsh on yourself. I got rejected once because I didn't knew what a React Portal was, which in case you don't know it's something you learn in 30 seconds by going here: reactjs.org/docs/portals.html

When conducting interviews I give more importance to the human interaction since I think anyone can learn how to code, but it's harder to teach someone how not to be a jerk.
