I learned about how much I didn't understand react on my 2nd dev job. I had like 2yoe with react previously. There's a lot about it. Mostly tricks. hacks and work arounds for it's abysmal performance.
What were you doing that was getting poor performance?
There many ways of doing things in react and some are faster than others. I would abuse state and use effect at my old job but at this job my sr dev doesn't allow me to use useffect unless the situation warrants it.
Ahh yes, abusing state can be temping. Just a little tweak here, it’s ok… no one is looking… oh crap!
I'm relatively new to React (about 8 months in with React Native). Can you give me some examples of abusing state?
I'm not at all a React fan, and prefer vanilla or Vue.
But what is happening where you're hitting abysmal performance?
Are you blaming the implementation or the tools because while I can achieve faster performance with vanilla... In no way is abysmal a word I'd used.
Just exaggerating. React can be slow. Look up form performance in react with multiple inputs.
Praise be to react-hook-form for saving us all 🙏
