useState looks simple, but it teaches one of the most important ideas in React: UI is a function of state. The moment you stop manually changing the DOM and start updating state instead, React starts to make a lot more sense. useState is usually the first hook people learn, but it is also the one that shapes how you think about component design: - what data changes - what triggers re-renders - what should stay local - what should move higher up Simple API, big mindset shift. Good React code starts with good state decisions. #reactjs #javascript #frontend #webdevelopment

3 Simple Ways to Improve Performance in React While working with React, small optimizations can make a big difference: 1. useMemo / useCallback Helps reduce unnecessary re-renders, especially for repeated calculations or functions 2. Code Splitting (React.lazy) Load components only when needed, which improves initial load time 3. Reduce unnecessary re-renders * Use React.memo * Organize your state properly * Keep components focused and isolated Apply these, and you’ll notice a smoother and faster UI #React #Frontend #Performance #WebDevelopment #JavaScript

Mastering React Hooks made my frontend journey 10x easier 🚀 Here’s a simple breakdown 👇 🔹 State Management Hooks: • useState → manage simple state • useReducer → handle complex logic • useContext → share data globally 🔹 Side Effect Hooks: • useEffect → API calls, lifecycle tasks • useCallback → optimize functions • useMemo → improve performance 👉 If you understand these hooks, you can build powerful React apps easily. Which React Hook do you use the most? 🤔 #reactjs #frontend #webdevelopment #javascript #coding

useState is great for simple values. But when state starts spreading across multiple fields, conditions, and edge cases, useReducer usually wins. Why? Because it makes state changes predictable. Instead of chasing setters across a component, you define actions and keep update logic in one place. - Less guessing. - Less scattered logic. - Cleaner React. My rule: Use useState for simple state. Use useReducer when state has multiple ways to change. React gets easier when state transitions are explicit. #react #javascript #frontend #webdevelopment

I learnt a lot doing this project. Understood the use of React like never before and how certain features are utilized. Features: -> Drag-and-drop tasks across the Todo, Working, Completed columns using a React Library -> Add, edit, and view tasks with modals -> State management using React Context -> Persistent tasks with localStorage -> Learned advanced React hooks, context, and dynamic UI handling This project helped me level up my React skills and understand interactive, state-driven UIs.

Everyone is learning React. But not everyone is learning the right things. In 2026, React isn’t about: ❌ Memorizing hooks ❌ Copy-pasting components It’s about: ✅ State management thinking ✅ Component architecture ✅ Performance optimization ✅ Understanding rendering behavior Frameworks will change. But these skills won’t. Don’t just learn React. Learn how React thinks. #ReactJS #Frontend #WebDevelopment #JavaScript

Day 26 #100DaysOfCode 💻 Today I learned about Function, Component, State & Event in Next.js. 🔹 Function Functions are reusable blocks of code used to perform specific tasks. 🔹 Component In Next.js, everything is a component. It helps to break UI into reusable pieces. 🔹 State State is used to store dynamic data inside a component and re-render UI when data changes. 🔹 Event Events handle user interactions like clicks, input, form submission, etc. 💻 Code Snippet: "use client"; import { useState } from "react"; export default function Counter() { const [count, setCount] = useState(0); const handleClick = () => { setCount(count + 1); }; return ( <div> <h2>Count: {count}</h2> <button onClick={handleClick}>Increase</button> </div> ); } 🚀 Small reflection: Understanding these core concepts makes building dynamic and interactive apps much easier. #NextJS #ReactJS #WebDevelopment #JavaScript #Frontend #CodingJourney #Akbiplob
