React Compiler Internals
Introduction to React Compiler, its benefits, and the problem of memoization in React. Performance issues due to stateful components in React, solution with React.memo and use memo, and the benefits of React compiler in automating memoization. Compiler's transformation into high-level intermediate representation provides a clearer understanding of code operations and data flow, addressing the issues with unique identifiers for variables in complex scenarios. Compiler ensures each variable is assigned exactly once through single static assignment, resolving issues with variable values based on code paths and introducing unique names for assignments. Effects describe how operations interact with data, ensuring safe caching with types like read, store, capture, mutate, and freeze effects. The compiler understands operations but needs to identify values that change between renders for React, leading to the reactive analysis phase to determine reactive values in the component. Variables marked as reactive for potential changes between renders are optimized for caching. Compiler identifies dependencies to group operations for efficient caching. Scopes are established to cache related variables together and ensure efficient rendering and performance improvement in the final JavaScript code. Compiler sets up cache slots for dependencies and outputs to optimize performance. Scopes work independently to recalculate based on changes, ensuring efficient memoization. React Compiler streamlines memoization, providing automatic correct optimizations without manual burden, paving the way for performance-focused code.

Temporal: Modern Dates and Times in JavaScript
I'll speak today about the Temporal proposal, which adds modern date and time handling to JavaScript. Temporal is an API that'll be available in browsers soon and will add a built-in library for dates and times, avoiding the need for external libraries like Moment. It offers strong typing with different types for different data, such as calendar dates with or without time. Temporal objects are immutable and designed to work with JavaScript's internationalization facilities. It addresses deficiencies in the global Date object and introduces types like instant and plain types for accurate representation of time and dates across time zones. With the old Date, representing a date without a time can be problematic, especially in time zones where midnight is skipped due to daylight saving time. Temporal introduces types like PlainDate, PlainTime, PlainYearMonth, PlainMonthDay, and ZonedDateTime to accurately represent different scenarios. Additionally, there is a type called Duration for arithmetic operations and unit conversion. Now that I've introduced you to the cast of characters in Temporal, it's time to show how to accomplish a programming task. We'll start with an easy task: getting the current time as a timestamp in milliseconds using the instant type. To convert between Temporal types, you can either drop or add information. The toZonedDateTime method is used for conversion and requires adding a time zone and a time. Although Temporal objects are immutable, you can create new objects with replaced components using the with method. Migrating from the old Date object to Temporal offers a more reliable solution and avoids potential bugs. Check out the documentation for more details and enjoy using Temporal in your codebase!

Everything You Thought You Knew About React Functional Components Is Wrong
Thank you for coming to React Summit! I wanted to create clarity around React Hooks and provide tools for troubleshooting React issues. Functional components in React are different from class components in terms of their lifecycle. Understanding the creation and destruction of objects in JavaScript is crucial to comprehend the behavior of functional components. Creating functions and objects that are not used can lead to memory waste and system resource consumption. Storing references to variables can keep them in memory, so it's crucial to ensure there is a direct path from window to the variable. This talk discusses creating objects and storing them in React components using useState and useMemo. It emphasizes the importance of using useCallback in cases where a callback is going into a component with a large state tree to avoid unnecessary renders. The talk also explores different approaches to handling data retrieval and update in React components, highlighting the use of useRef as a solution to access and update data in server-side data sources. Overall, the talk provides insights and tools for troubleshooting issues in React functional components.

Let's Build Suspense 🥁
Hi, my name is Julian and I am super excited to be speaking at React Summit this year. Today, I will be talking about Suspense on the server and its importance in React server components. React server components allow us to differentiate between static and dynamic components, improving performance and user experience. Suspense improves performance by introducing streaming and out-of-order streaming. We can implement suspense on the server by creating a suspended object to store the suspended children and swapping out the loading state for the actual content using custom elements. Multiple suspense boundaries can be used to render individual loading states for different sections, improving the user experience.

In this talk, the speaker aims to build an accurate understanding of how the new React compiler works, focusing on minimizing re-renders and improving performance. They discuss the concept of memoization and how it can be used to optimize React applications by storing the results of function calls. The React compiler automates this process by analyzing code, checking dependencies, and transpiling JSX. The speaker emphasizes the importance of being aware of memory concerns when using memoization and explains how the React compiler detects changes in function closure values. They also mention the Fibre Tree, which drives the reconciliation process and helps optimize performance in React. Additionally, the speaker touches on JSX transpilation, compiler caching, and the generation of code. They encourage developers to understand the code generated by the compiler to optimize specific sections as needed.

React Query - The Bad Parts
Top Content
React Query is a popular library with significant weekly downloads and positive user sentiment. It may have trade-offs like bundle size, but the actual size shipped is smaller. Bundle size optimization can be achieved by exporting only necessary features. React Query's declarative approach eliminates the need for custom data fetching solutions. It offers caching, request duplication, background updates, and more. RackQuery doesn't support normalized caching, but refetching after invalidation works fine. React's vision includes suspense architecture and server components. The documentation could be improved with a more structured flow. TensorStack Query can be a good choice for Next.js apps, but not necessary with mature frameworks. The 10 stack query and router concepts were discussed. Combining React Query with HTTP caching provides a robust caching solution.

Advanced features include overriding headers, network panel customization, and performance tooling. We also discuss Core Web Vitals, optimizing pages, and debugging UI with DevTools. There are fun tips for enhancing animations and logging workflow. The Talk ends with Q&A and sharing/removing features based on user feedback.

We're going to be doing a future of React panel discussions. React 19 is in RC stage and we're excited to hear when it will be stable. The React compiler is here to stay and is the future of developer experience and tooling. React 19 brings exciting features like RSCs and consolidation of the framework. React's commitment to community and innovation is commendable. The React team values feedback and actively engages with the community. React's future includes supporting the community and enabling smooth migrations. There's a need to teach underlying concepts and educate AI systems. Teaching and adapting to React can be challenging. The React compiler changes default re-rendering behavior. Collaboration with Next.js and Vercel has been valuable for React's development. Appreciation for the community and partnerships with Vercel and Microsoft.
