React 19 Development

React 19 introduces powerful new features for building modern web applications with enhanced server capabilities, improved form handling, and better performance.

Quick Start

Basic Component with Hooks

import { useState, useEffect } from "react";

function Counter() {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

  useEffect(() => {
    console.log("Count changed:", count);
  }, [count]);

  return (
    <div>
      <p>Count: {count}</p>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Increment</button>
    </div>
  );
}

Custom Hook for API Data

import { useState, useEffect } from "react";

function useApiData(url) {
  const [data, setData] = useState(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
  const [error, setError] = useState(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    const fetchData = async () => {
      try {
        const response = await fetch(url);
        const result = await response.json();
        setData(result);
      } catch (err) {
        setError(err);
      } finally {
        setLoading(false);
      }
    };

    fetchData();
  }, [url]);

  return { data, loading, error };
}

// Usage
function UserProfile({ userId }) {
  const { data: user, loading, error } = useApiData(`/api/users/${userId}`);

  if (loading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;
  if (!user) return <div>No user found</div>;

  return <div>{user.name}</div>;
}

React 19 New Features

Server Actions and Forms

// Server action
"use server";
async function updateUser(formData) {
  const name = formData.get("name");
  const email = formData.get("email");

  // Database update logic here
  await db.users.update({ name, email });

  return { success: true, message: "User updated successfully" };
}

// Client component with form
function UserForm({ user }) {
  const [state, formAction, isPending] = useActionState(updateUser, null);

  return (
    <form action={formAction}>
      <input name="name" defaultValue={user.name} />
      <input name="email" defaultValue={user.email} />
      <button type="submit" disabled={isPending}>
        {isPending ? "Updating..." : "Update"}
      </button>
      {state?.message && <p>{state.message}</p>}
    </form>
  );
}

Form Status Hook

import { useFormStatus } from "react-dom";

function SubmitButton() {
  const { pending } = useFormStatus();

  return (
    <button type="submit" disabled={pending}>
      {pending ? "Submitting..." : "Submit"}
    </button>
  );
}

function ContactForm() {
  return (
    <form action={submitContact}>
      <input name="name" placeholder="Your name" />
      <input name="email" placeholder="Your email" />
      <SubmitButton />
    </form>
  );
}

Server Components

// Server Component (runs on server)
async function BlogPost({ id }) {
  const post = await db.posts.find(id);

  return (
    <article>
      <h1>{post.title}</h1>
      <p>{post.content}</p>
      <CommentSection postId={post.id} />
    </article>
  );
}

// Client Component for interactivity
("use client");
function CommentSection({ postId }) {
  const [comments, setComments] = useState([]);
  const [newComment, setNewComment] = useState("");

  const addComment = async () => {
    // Client-side logic for adding comments
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <h3>Comments</h3>
      {/* Comment rendering and form */}
    </div>
  );
}

Common Patterns

State Management with Context

import { createContext, useContext, useState, useReducer } from "react";

// Create context
const AuthContext = createContext();

// Auth provider component
function AuthProvider({ children }) {
  const [user, setUser] = useState(null);

  const login = async (credentials) => {
    // Login logic
    setUser(userData);
  };

  const logout = () => {
    setUser(null);
  };

  return (
    <AuthContext.Provider value={{ user, login, logout }}>
      {children}
    </AuthContext.Provider>
  );
}

// Custom hook for consuming context
function useAuth() {
  const context = useContext(AuthContext);
  if (!context) {
    throw new Error("useAuth must be used within AuthProvider");
  }
  return context;
}

// Usage in components
function Header() {
  const { user, logout } = useAuth();

  return (
    <header>
      {user ? (
        <div>
          <span>Welcome, {user.name}</span>
          <button onClick={logout}>Logout</button>
        </div>
      ) : (
        <div>Please log in</div>
      )}
    </header>
  );
}

Data Fetching with Suspense

import { Suspense } from "react";

// Async component
async function UserList() {
  const users = await fetchUsers(); // async function

  return (
    <ul>
      {users.map((user) => (
        <li key={user.id}>{user.name}</li>
      ))}
    </ul>
  );
}

// Using Suspense boundary
function App() {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Users</h1>
      <Suspense fallback={<div>Loading users...</div>}>
        <UserList />
      </Suspense>
    </div>
  );
}

Optimistic Updates

import { useState, useTransition } from "react";

function TodoList() {
  const [todos, setTodos] = useState(initialTodos);
  const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();

  const addTodo = async (newTodo) => {
    // Optimistic update
    const optimisticId = Date.now();
    startTransition(() => {
      setTodos((prev) => [
        ...prev,
        {
          id: optimisticId,
          text: newTodo,
          status: "optimistic",
        },
      ]);
    });

    try {
      const savedTodo = await saveTodo(newTodo);
      // Replace optimistic todo with saved one
      setTodos((prev) =>
        prev.map((todo) => (todo.id === optimisticId ? savedTodo : todo)),
      );
    } catch (error) {
      // Revert optimistic update on error
      setTodos((prev) => prev.filter((todo) => todo.id !== optimisticId));
    }
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <ul>
        {todos.map((todo) => (
          <li
            key={todo.id}
            style={{ opacity: todo.status === "optimistic" ? 0.5 : 1 }}
          >
            {todo.text}
          </li>
        ))}
      </ul>
      <button onClick={() => addTodo("New task")} disabled={isPending}>
        Add Todo
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

Error Boundaries

import { Component } from "react";

class ErrorBoundary extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = { hasError: false, error: null };
  }

  static getDerivedStateFromError(error) {
    return { hasError: true, error };
  }

  componentDidCatch(error, errorInfo) {
    console.error("Error caught by boundary:", error, errorInfo);
  }

  render() {
    if (this.state.hasError) {
      return (
        <div>
          <h2>Something went wrong</h2>
          <details>{this.state.error?.message}</details>
        </div>
      );
    }

    return this.props.children;
  }
}

// Usage
function App() {
  return (
    <ErrorBoundary>
      <MyComponent />
    </ErrorBoundary>
  );
}

Performance Patterns

Memoization with useMemo and useCallback

import { useState, useMemo, useCallback } from "react";

function ExpensiveComponent({ data, onItemClick }) {
  const [filter, setFilter] = useState("");

  // Memoize expensive computation
  const filteredData = useMemo(() => {
    console.log("Filtering data...");
    return data.filter((item) =>
      item.name.toLowerCase().includes(filter.toLowerCase()),
    );
  }, [data, filter]);

  // Memoize event handler
  const handleItemClick = useCallback(
    (item) => {
      onItemClick(item);
    },
    [onItemClick],
  );

  return (
    <div>
      <input
        value={filter}
        onChange={(e) => setFilter(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="Filter items..."
      />
      <ul>
        {filteredData.map((item) => (
          <li key={item.id} onClick={() => handleItemClick(item)}>
            {item.name}
          </li>
        ))}
      </ul>
    </div>
  );
}

Code Splitting with lazy loading

import { lazy, Suspense } from "react";

// Lazy load component
const AdminDashboard = lazy(() => import("./AdminDashboard"));

function App() {
  const [isAdmin, setIsAdmin] = useState(false);

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>My App</h1>
      <button onClick={() => setIsAdmin(true)}>Admin View</button>

      {isAdmin && (
        <Suspense fallback={<div>Loading admin dashboard...</div>}>
          <AdminDashboard />
        </Suspense>
      )}
    </div>
  );
}

Best Practices

Component Structure

// Good: Single responsibility components
function UserAvatar({ user, size = "medium" }) {
  return (
    <img
      src={user.avatar}
      alt={user.name}
      className={`avatar avatar-${size}`}
    />
  );
}

function UserCard({ user }) {
  return (
    <div className="user-card">
      <UserAvatar user={user} size="large" />
      <h3>{user.name}</h3>
      <p>{user.email}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

Prop Types and Default Values

import PropTypes from "prop-types";

function Button({
  children,
  variant = "primary",
  size = "medium",
  onClick,
  disabled = false,
}) {
  const className = `btn btn-${variant} btn-${size}`;

  return (
    <button className={className} onClick={onClick} disabled={disabled}>
      {children}
    </button>
  );
}

Button.propTypes = {
  children: PropTypes.node.isRequired,
  variant: PropTypes.oneOf(["primary", "secondary", "danger"]),
  size: PropTypes.oneOf(["small", "medium", "large"]),
  onClick: PropTypes.func,
  disabled: PropTypes.bool,
};
