10 Mistakes To
Avoid When
Using React
Don't miss it ¥es Keep Swiping...

01. Building a Monolith React App
Problem: By doing so, you build a giant monolith
React app that can cause maintainability and
scalability issues as your project grows.
Solution: Leverage next-generation build systems like
Bit to design and develop independent components
for any React project.
02. Importing More Than You Need
Problem: Importing more than necessary can
increase bundle size that will lead to slower load times
and potentially a poorer user experience.
Solution: Import only the specific components or
functions you need from a module. Use code-splitting
to load components on demand.es Keep Swiping...

03. Not Separating Business Logic
Problem: Mixing business logic directly within
components can make code less reusable and more
challenging to test and maintain.
Solution: Create separate functions or services to
handle business logic and call them from
components.
04. Prop Drilling
Problem: Prop drilling will make your code less
readable, harder to maintain, and more prone to
errors.
Solution: Use React Context or a state management
library like Redux to share data more effectively
across components without prop drilling.Cae PeeeS Tate

05. Recalculations on Each Render
Problem: Performing expensive computations or
operations within a component's render function can
lead to performance issues.
Solution: Use techniques like memoization
(with React.memo, useMemo, or useCallback) to
cache values and prevent unnecessary re-renders.
06. Ignoring Code Readability
Problem: Spaghetti code becomes hard to navigate,
debug, and refactor, decreasing development
efficiency.
Solution: Follow consistent coding styles, use proper
variable names, properly indent code, & break down
complex functions into smaller, reusable units.es Keep Swiping...

07. Overusing State
Problem: Managing state unnecessarily in
components can lead to performance issues and
unnecessary re-renders.
Solution: Carefully consider whether a component
needs state and optimize state updates to minimize
re-renders. Use useReducer for complex state.
08. Using useEffect Improperly
Problem: Improper use of useEffect hook can lead to
infinite loops, memory leaks, or unexpected behaviour.
Solution: Understand the dependency array of
useEffect and use it to control when the effect runs. Be
mindful of cleanup functions to prevent memory
leaks.ug Baran

09. Ignoring Error Handling
Problem: Unhandled errors crash the application, and
inadequate logging makes diagnosing and fixing
problems hard.
Solution: Implement try-catch blocks to handle
errors gracefully and use libraries like react-error-
boundary to handle component-level errors.
10. Re-inventing the Wheel
Problem: Duplicating existing functionality wastes
time and effort, potentially leading to bugs and
inconsistencies.
Solution: Leverage existing, well-maintained libraries
and components for standard functionalities like
routing, state management, form handling, etc.
