Custom hooks:

• Hot take 🔥. React Hooks are bad for your code. Here’s why!
• Why You Should Be Writing React Custom Hooks
• Why custom react hooks could destroy your app performance
• useWindowOrientation custom hook
• Dealing with useEffect arrays

Libraries

• visx - react wrapper around d3.js
• React Recoil
• react-spring
• react-ts-form
• react-hook-form
• Drift - a library for React that allows for always drift between online/offline apps. This seems to have some structures you’d need to implement.

Ideas

• Should functions defined in custom hooks always use useMemo or useCallback
• React should just be a view layer
• You should not handle server state all over your React app
• It is tricky to keep data changes separate from animating state changes for users when doing declarative programming
• React debugger has an option to highlight component renders!
• Performance in React is tricky
• I think React might be terrible at scale
• React seems antithetical to functional core, imperative shell
• I think I might hate React
• How much should you think about how React renders?
