useEffect By Example

1 rating

You're afraid that touching your useEffect's dependency array will result in chaos: stale data being displayed by your components, or worse: infinite re-renders. You even wonder if you should leave the code as it is. Telling your manager that the feature can't be done isn't as bad as dealing with useEffect bugs, is it?

You know that it's possible to write bug-free useEffects, you just don't think YOU can do it.

But what if you could? What if you could write useEffects that "Just Work"? What if you knew exactly how to use the dependency array? You could use useEffect with confidence that it does what you expect it to. Imagine!

It's true, useEffect can be confusing, and easily results in race conditions and infinite re-renders... but it doesn't have to.

Master useEffect in a single afternoon, with useEffect By Example.

You'll learn how to use useEffect to fetch data, and avoid nasty race conditions. Take the guesswork out of using the dependency array, and prevent infinite re-rendersΒ with useCallback and useMemo, while also keeping ESLint happy.

Just block out an afternoon, buy a copy of useEffect By Example, and you'll be using useEffect with the confidence that it does exactly what you need in no time.
