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.
