Sudhanshu Yadav discusses the incremental concurrent feature in React 18 and the need for concurrent mode to provide a better user experience. Time slicing is the key pattern enabling concurrent features. Background rendering and unit of work are used to achieve asynchronous rendering and eventual consistency. Concurrent mode introduces a new pattern called differing for immediate rendering and adjusting based on available resources. React provides APIs for deferred updates and transitions. Implementing concurrent mode APIs can be complex, but it offers benefits like avoiding update starvation and reusing work. Scheduling and slots are used to control execution and dynamic FPS control. Handling multiple transitions can be challenging, but the React 18 working group discussions provide insights into the team's efforts to improve the user experience.

React Fiber is a reconciliation algorithm introduced in React 16 to address laggy input fields and heavy rendering. The old stack reconciler caused a laggy experience by re-rendering the entire subtree immediately. React Fiber solves this by breaking work into incremental units and assigning priorities. It introduces concurrent mode to make apps responsive and adaptable. The useDeferredValue hook is commonly used to keep the interface responsive by rendering components immediately and others at a later time.

It explains how concurrent rendering improves UI performance by allowing fast updates to proceed without being blocked by slow updates. The concept of assigning priorities to renders is discussed, with high priority renders being synchronous and low priority renders being interruptible. The Talk also mentions the benefits of using concurrent features in navigation and list filtering. Overall, concurrent React enhances rendering with interruptibility and prioritization, making the application feel faster and more responsive.

The Talk discussed Concurrent React and its impact on app performance, particularly in relation to long tasks on the main thread.

The importance of understanding React internals and correlating performance metrics with business metrics was emphasized.

This talk explores how React Suspense and Concurrent mode can enhance the user experience by controlling loading areas, prefetching data, and reducing loading time. It demonstrates how UseTransition can remove unnecessary loaders by skipping the loading state if data arrives within a specified time. The speaker advises using these experimental features in personal projects rather than enterprise applications. The talk concludes with an invitation to join the journey at Postman and thanks to the organizers, sponsors, speakers, and audience for making the conference a success.

I'm going to be speaking about concurrency within React and how you can use it to improve performance within your applications. Concurrency is crucial for optimizing responsiveness and ensuring a good user experience in complex applications. React breaks up the rendering process into render and commit phases, allowing interruption of the render phase for prioritizing user interactions. React's task scheduler handles tasks in small chunks, ensuring a fluid user experience and responsiveness. High-priority tasks include user interactions, while lower priority tasks involve fetching data or rendering long lists. React introduced new hooks, useTransition and useDeferredValue, for handling state update priorities. The deferred value hook allows for deferring the updates of non-critical UI values, while Suspense for Data Fetching improves the performance of data fetching in React applications. Concurrency is useful for handling real-time search inputs, seamless tab or component switching, rendering large lists, and animating transitions. However, there are drawbacks to concurrency, such as potential delays in non-urgent updates and limited benefits for expensive components. Concurrency may add CPU strain and requires an understanding of React's background behavior for effective debugging. Use suspense on parent level components for data fetching. Performance profiling can help test the effectiveness of transition hooks.

The talk discusses the ramifications of the new concurrent features in React and the misconceptions around the rendering model. It explores the changes in the rendering process and the need to handle state carefully. The talk also highlights the challenges in managing communication with the outside world and the recommended libraries for synchronization. It mentions the benefits of using concurrent mode in existing frameworks and the difficulties in building demos and enforcing immutability. Finally, it emphasizes the benefits of concurrent mode for heavy components.

React 18's concurrent rendering, specifically the useTransition hook, optimizes app performance by allowing non-urgent updates to be processed without freezing the UI. However, there are drawbacks such as longer processing time for non-urgent updates and increased CPU usage. The useTransition hook works similarly to throttling or bouncing, making it useful for addressing performance issues caused by multiple small components. Libraries like React Query may require the use of alternative APIs to handle urgent and non-urgent updates effectively.

The Talk discusses the InteractionToNextPaint metric, which measures the speed of clicks or keyboard inputs on a page. It explores the impact of slow interactions and slow React renders on user experience. The Talk also covers optimization techniques for React rendering, including the use of concurrent features and the StartTransition function. React 18 introduces changes to the rendering process that improve interaction speed. Concurrent rendering and suspense boundaries are highlighted as features that can enhance the performance of React apps.

This Talk explores synchronous IO in Node.js and the advantages of asynchronous IO. It discusses exceptions to synchronous IO and approaches to achieving synchronous IO in Node.js, including using WASI and native add-ons. The Talk also covers mixing workers with atomics for synchronous IO and embedding Node.js to create a synchronous worker. Additionally, it touches on TypeScript migration, optimizations in Node.js, and experiences and advice on contributing to Node.js.

I'm going over the new event loop in React Native, which is one of the more interesting parts of the new architecture. The new architecture includes the JSI for synchronous communication between layers, new Native modules for type safety and code sharing, and the Fabric renderer for prioritized rendering and support for modern React 18 features. The React Native event loop works differently from the previous architecture, executing tasks and updating rendering. The React Native team can now schedule JavaScript code within React components to execute at specific times, allowing for control over the execution schedule. React Native can now prioritize rendering urgent events, resulting in a more synchronized and flicker-free UI. The goal of the new event loop specification is to align React Native more closely with the web, providing capabilities and behaviors similar to the web. Migrating to the new React Native architecture aims to minimize fundamental changes for existing codebases and ensure proper support from library maintainers.

Today's Talk introduces the new Node.js test runner and its features, including filtering, sub-testing, and reporting. It also discusses executing and writing tests in Node.js, as well as the features of the Node.js testing library. The advantages of the Node.js test runner include the ability to create custom test reporters and use TypeScript. However, there are limitations such as a small ecosystem and limited libraries. Upcoming features include test planning, faster test running, and continuous evolution. The Q&A session covers topics like test runner speed, reporters, sharding, and parallelization.

This talk explores how useState works under the hood and why it's important to understand. It addresses the common confusion around the callback to setState and provides insights gained from exploring React hooks source code. Knowing how useState works is important for learning patterns, debugging, and gaining confidence in our code. React manages the current value of hooks in a linked list and performs updates sequentially. React optimizes rendering by caching computations and performing shallow renders when the state doesn't change.
