Wow! , As a Vue developer, I did not expect that React's concept is almost the same as in Vue but just a different syntax. I'm really excited to switch to React now since it has more job openings 😊.
This is a great resource for anyone learning React: accessible, concise, and fun. I just shared it with some devs on my team who have been learning React, and they found it the most helpful of everything else they've studied.
🪄✨ Made with SummarizeYT 0:00 - Introduction to React hooks and their importance in building React apps. 0:18 - Overview of the eight major categories of React hooks. 1:04 - Explanation of `useState` as a fundamental hook for managing component state. 2:16 - Introduction to `useReducer` for complex state management. 3:20 - Discussion on `useSyncExternalStore` and its limited use case. 3:38 - Definition of effect hooks and their role in performing side effects. 4:52 - When to use `useEffect` for synchronizing React code with browser APIs. 5:08 - Explanation of `useLayoutEffect` and its timing in the rendering process. 5:49 - Introduction to `useInsertionEffect` for CSS-in-JS library developers. 6:05 - Effect hooks can read from the layout, like effects refs. 6:15 - The `useRef` hook allows remembering data without triggering a render. 6:39 - Refs are mutable, while state is immutable, allowing direct modification. 7:00 - Use imperative handle to forward refs and expose methods to parent components. 7:42 - `useMemo` caches previous results to improve performance for expensive computations. 8:25 - `useCallback` prevents callback functions from being recreated on each render. 9:01 - `useContext` reads context values from a context provider. 9:26 - `useTransition` marks certain state updates as non-urgent for better responsiveness. 10:18 - `useDeferredValue` schedules updates at optimal times for improved user experience. 11:15 - `useId` creates unique IDs for form inputs, ensuring no conflicts.
These hangups show just how terribly React is designed. We’re all learning it because it’s big not because it’s good. These frameworks promise but don’t deliver 2-way data binding in anything but the most trivial primitive examples.
Only minor thing is that, the React team kinda silently stopped using "Virtual DOM", it's just the more general React Tree term now. If you go to to the new React documentation and search "virtual DOM" you won't find anything.
