Passing Data to Components (React)

Props are used to pass data from parent components to child components in React.

Modifying Props (React)

Props in React are read-only and cannot be modified by the child component. A child component can only access and display props.

Props vs. State (React)

Props are for data passed from parent to child, while state manages data within a component.

Passing Multiple Values (React)

Pass multiple values as an object or array within a single prop.

useMemo in React

useMemo in React is a hook that memoizes the result of an expensive calculation. It only re-computes the value when its dependencies change.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Why use useMemo?

Use useMemo when you have calculations that are costly to perform on every render, but need to be re-computed only when dependencies change.

Signup and view all the flashcards

When to avoid useMemo?

Avoid useMemo if the calculation is cheap, if the component doesn't rely on expensive operations, or if it adds unnecessary complexity.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Stale useMemo values

If the calculation inside useMemo depends on a value not in the dependency array, the memoized value becomes stale and doesn't reflect the latest state.

Form Submission Trigger

The onSubmit event handler in React forms is responsible for triggering the form submission process. This includes steps like handling form validation or data processing before sending the form data to a server.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Two-Way Binding in React Forms

Two-way data binding in React forms ensures that the data in the input fields is synchronized with the component's state. Changes made by the user in the input fields are reflected in the state, and vice versa. This allows for interactive and dynamic forms.

Form Validation in React

Form validation in React is the process of checking the user-entered data in the input fields to ensure that it meets certain criteria. This typically involves using event handlers to validate the input data before the form is submitted.

Benefits of Controlled Components

In React, controlled form components provide a single source of truth for the form data, making it easier to manage and validate. This allows for predictable and consistent form behavior, as changes to the data source are reflected throughout the form seamlessly.

Binding Input to State

In React forms, you bind an input field to a specific property of the component's state by setting the value prop of the input field to the corresponding state property. This establishes a direct link between the input field and the state, allowing for real-time updates.

What does useCallback do?

The useCallback hook in React memoizes a function, preventing unnecessary re-creations and improving performance, especially when used for event handlers.

Signup and view all the flashcards

Why use useCallback for event handlers?

When an event handler function is created within a component's render method, it gets recreated on every re-render. useCallback prevents this, making it only re-created if the function's dependencies change, leading to optimization.

Study Notes

What is a Class Component in React?

  • A JavaScript class that extends React.Component

How to Define a Class Component in React

  • Defined as a reusable JavaScript class
  • Must include a render method

Required Elements in a React Class Component

  • A render method to return JSX
  • A state object initialized in the constructor

Role of the Render Method

  • Defines what the user sees on the screen in a class component

Role of the This Keyword

  • Refers to the current instance of the class

Passing Data into a React Class Component

  • Primary way is through props in JSX

Accessing Props

  • Using this.props

Purpose of the State Object

  • Manages dynamic data that changes over time

Missing Render Method Error

  • If a class component lacks a render method, it will not compile and an error occurs.

Constructor Role

  • Initializes state and binds methods in a class component

Default state value

  • If not explicitly initialized, the state defaults to an empty object

Updating State

  • Use the setState method to update state in a class component

State Existence

  • Class components can exist without state

Managing State

  • setState is used to update the state in the component. This triggers re-rendering with the updated state but does it asynchronously. Re-render occurs when there is a state change

Default Props

  • Define default values for props in class components if not provided

Conditional Rendering

  • Use ternary operators or logical operators in the return statement to conditionally render elements

Functional Component vs Class Component

  • Functional Components are a JavaScript function that returns JSX
  • Class Components are defined as a class that uses the class keyword

JSX (JavaScript XML)

  • A syntax extension for JavaScript that allows writing HTML-like code in React
  • Transpiled to standard Javascript

Functional Component Properties

  • Stateless by nature, doesn't use this keyword

JSX in React

  • A syntax extension for JavaScript that allows writing HTML-like code in React
  • Written within Javascript but with HTML-like syntax

Functional components and JSX

  • Functional components in React can return JSX elements

Accessing Props in Functional Components

  • Props are passed as arguments to the function

Props in Functional Components

  • Used to pass data from a parent component to a child component

Conditional Rendering (Functional Components)

  • Can be done by using a ternary operator or logical operators within the return statement

Default Props in Functional Components

  • Accepts props using defaultProps

Keys in Lists

  • Used to track individual items in lists for efficient reconciliation and rendering

List Rendering

  • Use the map function to render each item individually in React

State Management

  • State is used for component-specific data updates versus props used to share data from parents to children.

Props vs State

  • Props are passed down to child components from parent components.
  • State values are declared within the component's body.

Event Handling

  • In React, by using the on[eventname] property of a JSX element.

Memoizing in React

  • useRef to access DOM elements when they are created

State Updates

  • Calling setState with the same value does not cause a re-render

Event Handlers

  • React event handlers functions are passed as function without parentheses

useState Hook

  • Manages component state
  • Returns an array with current state value and a function to update it

useReducer Hook

  • Manages complex state logic with multiple sub-values.
  • Uses a reducer function that processes actions to update the state.

useCallback Hook

  • Memoizes functions by remembering their return values.
  • Prevents unnecessary rerenders by only recalculating the function when its dependencies change.

useMemo Hook

  • Memoizes values or objects by only recalculating the value when props or state changes.
  • Prevents unnecessary rerenders.

useContext Hook

  • Accesses values from a context and updates them without passing props.
  • Used to share values across components without prop drilling.

GitHub Copilot

  • AI-powered code suggestions and completions.
