• What React components return

Components

• Main component, child component…

• Uses function-based components, not class-based components

• Can take Props

• React Hooks

  • Allow function components to have access to State, among other things

• Virtual DOM

  • State change → Compare → Re-render
  • Changed as of v19 due to compiler?

React Context API

Random Notes

• create-react-app sucks and is shit and isn’t even supported anymore

Variable declaration and Conditionals are before the return. Mostly.

StrictMode Lets you find common bugs in your components early during development
