I’ve built a React app, but it’s starting to feel sluggish as the app grows. What are the best practices for improving performance in React?
To optimize React performance, consider:
React.memo
for functional components to prevent unnecessary re-renders.react-window
or react-virtualized
to render only visible items in large lists.React.lazy
and Suspense
to load components only when needed.useMemo
and useCallback
: Optimize heavy computations and function references.Example of lazy loading:
const LazyComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./MyComponent'));
function App() {
return (
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
);
}
