Introducing av-toastx: Lightweight React Toast Notifications

🚀 Day 948 of #1000DaysOfCode ✨ Setting Up Redux in Next.js (The Right Way) State management in modern apps can get messy — especially when you’re working with frameworks like Next.js. In today’s post, I’ve shared a clean and practical setup of Redux in a Next.js application, so you can manage global state without confusion. From configuring the store to integrating it properly with your app structure, this setup ensures everything works smoothly with both client and server rendering. I’ve also focused on keeping the setup scalable, so you’re not just making it work — you’re building it the right way from the start. If you’re building real-world React or Next.js applications, understanding this setup will save you a lot of time and headaches later. 👇 What’s the most confusing part for you when setting up Redux in Next.js? #Day948 #learningoftheday #1000daysofcodingchallenge #FrontendDevelopment #WebDevelopment #JavaScript #React #Next #CodingCommunity #Redux #CodingCommunity

🧠 Most React apps scale fine at the start, Until state becomes messy, unpredictable, and hard to manage. 👉 Read the full guide 🔗 📌 What you’ll learn: https://shorturl.at/jtKRp ➥ Why poor state design is the biggest bottleneck in scaling React apps ➥ How to separate UI state vs server state effectively ➥ When to use local state, context or state libraries ➥ Patterns to avoid prop drilling and unnecessary re-renders ➥ Practical strategies to build clean, scalable state systems ✨✍ Written by: Harsh Chauhan #ReactJS #StateManagement #FrontendArchitecture #WebDevelopment #JavaScript #ScalableSystems #Engineering

"React performance: one trick that changed how I code" I used to re-render my entire app on every state change. Here's what I was missing... After years of building React apps, the single biggest performance win I found was understanding when components re-render — and stopping unnecessary ones dead in their tracks. The fix? Splitting state smartly. Keep fast-changing state close to where it's used, not at the top of your tree. 3 things I now do on every project: ✅ Use React.memo for pure components ✅ Move state down — don't lift it higher than needed ✅ Use useCallback/useMemo only when profiling shows it's needed (not by default) The last point is one most devs get wrong. Premature optimization with useMemo can actually slow things down. What's your go-to React performance tip? Drop it below 👇 #ReactJS #WebDevelopment #Frontend #JavaScript #SoftwareEngineering

Just published my first npm package: react-form-draft 🎉 It helps React apps persist and restore non-sensitive form drafts in the browser, with first-class support for React Hook Form. Built for long forms, settings pages, onboarding flows, and any screen where users might refresh, leave, and come back later. I’d really appreciate it if React / frontend developers give it a try and share feedback: API clarity DX edge cases real-world use cases Package: react-form-draft If you test it and have suggestions, I’d love to hear them. #react #npm #javascript #typescript #reacthookform #webdevelopment #opensource

Most React apps are slow for one reason: we treat everything like client state. The biggest unlock is deciding what should not be interactive. Ship less JavaScript. Render more on the server. Keep components boring. Make state local by default. React isn’t hard because of hooks. React is hard when we skip architecture. Build for clarity first, and performance usually follows.

🚀 Just built a full-featured Todo App in React! ✅ Add, Edit & Update tasks ✅ Mark tasks as Complete / Pending ✅ Filter by All / Completed / Pending ✅ Persistent data with LocalStorage ✅ Clean UI with counters & interactive buttons This project helped me strengthen my React skills, state management, and UI handling. 🌟 Source Code: 👉https://lnkd.in/dSRsWdeM Muhammad Osama Saylani Mass I.T Training (S.M.I.T) #ReactJS #WebDevelopment #JavaScript #FrontendDevelopment #CodingJourney #ProjectShowcase #TodoApp

🧠 Today I learned something powerful in React: Zustand As I continue building my frontend skills, I explored a lightweight state management library called Zustand — and honestly, it changed the way I think about managing state in React apps. Before this, I mostly used useState and props drilling, which works fine for small apps. But when the app grows, sharing state between components becomes messy and hard to maintain. That’s where Zustand comes in. 🚀 What I learned about Zustand: It allows you to create a global state store outside components Any component can access or update the state directly No need for Context Provider or complex Redux setup Clean, minimal, and very easy to use 💡 Simple idea that helped me understand it: Instead of passing data through components → Zustand keeps the data in one shared store that every component can use directly. This made my code: ✔ Cleaner ✔ More scalable ✔ Easier to manage I really enjoy discovering tools like this because they show me how real-world React applications are structured. Still learning, still building, and getting better every day 💻 #ReactJS #Zustand #FrontendDevelopment #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #LearningInPublic

You don't need Redux for most React apps. There, I said it. Redux is powerful, but it comes with boilerplate that slows you down. For the majority of projects, React Context combined with useReducer gives you everything you need. Here's a simple example: const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState); Wrap your components with a Context Provider, pass down state and dispatch, and you're done. No extra libraries, no middleware setup, no configuration headaches. This pattern works great for: - Auth state - Theme toggling - Shopping cart logic - Form management Redux still shines for large-scale apps with complex state interactions or when you need powerful dev tools and middleware like Redux Saga. But if you're building a mid-size React or even a Node.js/ASP.NET-backed frontend, keep it simple first. Don't over-engineer early. Add complexity only when the problem demands it. Are you still using Redux in smaller projects, or have you already made the switch to Context + useReducer? #React #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #Frontend #NodeJS #DotNet

A recent React project I worked on felt slow… and users were dropping off. ⚛️ Instead of rewriting everything, I focused on small optimizations: • Reduced bundle size • Added lazy loading • Improved overall performance The result? 45% faster load time. That’s when it hit me: Small optimizations = big impact. Are you optimizing your React app or just building features? 👇 #ReactJS #WebPerformance #FrontendDevelopment #JavaScript #MERNStack

I’ve used both Redux and Context API in my React projects… and honestly, each has its place. ⚛️ In smaller apps, Context API feels simple and quick. But as things grow, I often switch to Redux for better structure and scalability. That’s something I’ve learned over time: The right choice depends on the project, not the trend. So I’m curious. What’s your go-to for state management? Redux or Context API? #ReactJS #Redux #ContextAPI #FrontendDevelopment #JavaScript
