react

Whether you’re new to React or you are recently migrating from class components (this late?), you might not be familiar with how useEffect works.

Actually, you might be using it still from other existing (or copied 😉) code, but have no idea (or just a small idea) what’s actually happening.

In this post we’ll dive in to this very flexible hook, some example, and some real, common use-cases.

As React apps grow bigger and more complex, performance becomes more and more of a problem. As components become larger and contain more and more sub-components, rendering becomes slow and turns into a bottleneck.

How do we tackle this? If you haven’t used useMemo and useCallback, we can start with those.
