React Functional Updates for Efficient State Changes

you called setState twice. expected +2. got +1. both calls read the same stale count from the current render. they don't compound. they both say "set to 1." welcome to React. why it breaks: state updates don't happen immediately. they're scheduled. so count is still 0 inside your function no matter how many times you call setState. both calls read 0. both set to 1. result: 1. the Fix: use functional updates. each call gets the previous result and builds on it. The code : #reactjs #javascript #webdevelopment #buildinpublic #typescript

🤯 Ever wondered why React prints old values? I finally understood stale closures by connecting it with JavaScript closures. Sharing my notes in this carousel 👇 “Slide 8 explains the real problem clearly” #React #JavaScript #FrontendDevelopment

✨ Master JavaScript Array Destructuring for Cleaner Code Modern JavaScript lets you extract values in one line—making your code shorter, clearer, and easier to maintain. 🧠 Why it matters: Readable code = fewer bugs + faster development. ⚛️ If you’re using React, you’re already using destructuring (useState, useReducer). #JavaScript #FrontendDevelopment #WebDevelopment #ReactJS #CleanCode #ModernJS #SoftwareEngineering

Stop nesting your async calls in React! 🛑 Using async/await within a clean useEffect structure (or a custom hook) keeps your code readable, maintainable, and much easier to debug. What's your biggest React pet peeve? 👇 #ReactJS #CleanCode #JavaScript #softwaredevelopment #React

💡JavaScript Tip💡 Register an event handler to be executed only once. To trigger an event only once, you can pass the { once: true } as a third argument to the addEventListener method like this: 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗼 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Why does React feel so fast? ⚛️🚀 It’s not just about the Virtual DOM 👇 • Calculates minimal changes • Updates only what’s needed • Batches multiple updates • Avoids unnecessary re-renders 👉 Result: Faster and smoother UI In simple terms: React updates only the changed part, not the whole page. #ReactJS #FrontendDevelopment #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #MERNStack #SoftwareEngineering

🚀 JavaScript Output Challenge #5 (Hoisting Trap) Looks simple… but is it really? 👀 🧠 Question: 👉 What will be printed in the console? ⚠️ Don’t run the code. Try to think about: Hoisting Function declaration vs variable declaration Execution context 🤔 Bonus: Why does JavaScript behave this way internally? 💬 Drop your output + reasoning in comments Let’s see who understands JavaScript deeply 🔥 📌 Detailed explanation coming soon... #javascript #webdevelopment #frontend #codingchallenge #reactjs #nodejs

🚀 Still using await inside loops in Node.js? You might be slowing down your entire backend without realizing it. Switching to Promise.all() for independent tasks can massively boost performance⚡ Small optimization. Big impact. Are you writing async code the right way? #NodeJS #JavaScript #BackendDevelopment #Performance #CodingTips #AsyncAwait

📌 Part 8 of 10: A lot of React bugs make more sense once you realize state behaves more like a snapshot than a live variable. That idea sounds small. But once it clicks, a lot of confusing behavior starts making more sense. Why logs can feel misleading. Why updates don’t look immediate. Why handlers sometimes “see” older values than people expect. Once I really understood that, I stopped fighting React as much. I started designing with it instead.
