Quick takeaways
- Server components in React enable efficient data loading and rendering by running components on the server near the data source, providing flexibility and efficiency in application development.
- React Compiler (React Forget) aims to optimize React's reactivity model and simplify developer experience with hooks, focusing on auto-memoization and automatic reactivity to eliminate manual specification of dependency arrays and unnecessary re-renders.
Deep dives
The Next Paradigm Shift in React: Server Components
The next big paradigm shift in React is happening now with the introduction of server components. Server components are React components that run exclusively on the server and allow for efficient data loading and rendering. By running components on the server near the data source, developers can perform all the data loading on the server and only send the required components to the client for interactivity. Server components also enable the creation of shared components that can run on both the server and client, providing more flexibility and efficiency in application development.
