Thank you Jack for all of your high quality, in depth content. I'm so glad that i stumbled across your channel. You are explaining the concepts of React in a more detailed manner, which are often necessary when someone really wants to get a job as a React developer. Most React / programming channels on youtube only show the surface of some concepts. You explain more in depth, and in a way that it is really easy to understand. Your channel is truly underrated, I hope more people will find your channel.
I think I was afraid to overuse the hooks like this before seeing this. So many articles say to not abuse useMemo because it leads to performance issues, but judging by your examples, it seems like the opposite is true. Basically cache everything, or wrap everything that changes.
Another great tutorial. Your video quality has improved a lot, if possible can you do a video on recording or creating tutorials, and the setup that you are using currently.
Coming from Vue, I was watching and thinking "this is just like a computed property" and then you said that was just like it. I honestly was "afraid" of using useMemo when even the docs say to not use it often. But in your example, it does not only make sense, but I agree that having that list of dependencies makes clear that to "compute" this value depends on those other values.
Thank you, this was very informative. It was a bit hard for me to follow because of having two components in one file. Just a recommendation to consider separating out the components into their own files. Thanks!
useMemo and useCallback definitely have their place, but writing code like this you start feeling like you need them everywhere. It's a lot of boilerplate. It's can be worth taking a step back before you reach for them. 1. You could have achieved the same effect by instead separating the threshold input and count into a child component. 2. You get no value from memoizing onChange listeners if you are passing them straight to inputs anyway.
There should be a separate comment section for all the praise and appreciation ;) I was scrolling through in hope to find someone disagree with you on this one - simply out of interest in other points of view, not saying I'm not buying your arguments, but when there are 2 programmers there are 11 solutions (
The legendary Bill Joy once told me that the fundamental flaw of the "management" panacea of adding new programmers to a team that is behind schedule is that the rate of new code generation per developer expands linearly while the rate of new idea generation per developer expands exponentially. Since overall team productivity is the ratio of the former to the latter, team productivity asymptotically approaches zero as developers are added.
They are derived values. So the component can get re-rendered as many times as we want, but the min/max won't get re-computed unless the underlying data changes.
@@jherr i think useMemo should be used when we really wanna pass the value to other component? Since using useMemo uses memory and too many useMemo usage will eventually result a bad performance caused by first read-time to decide whether value will be memoized or not. I've seen a lot of apps using too many useMemo and instead resulting a slower app. or perhaps jack do u have any idea when it's the best time to stop useMemo? rather than memoized everything?
@@dellryuzi I haven't seen useMemo slow down an app. Comparing two arrays of scalars is a quick operation, and nobody is suggesting an app with useEffects is slower, and the dependency logic is the same between useMemo, useEffect and useCallback. If you're calculating an object or an array you should use useMemo because those are references, and if you do pass them somewhere to another component, or use that reference in a dependency array, you'll want it to managed by useMemo. If you are creating a scalar from useMemo then it's really a question of how long the scalar takes to calculate. If it's a simple expression then you probably shouldn't use useMemo, if it's the result of some iteration or a reduce, then you should probably use useMemo, otherwise not.
Hi Jack, I've not seen this line of code used before "const [pokemon, setPokemon] = useState([]);". I mean, I understand and have used the useState part but specifically not the part in that position. Is that a Typescript thing?
Yeah. That’s typescript. You have to define what will go into the array. If you start with an empty array there is no way for it to know what you will be putting into it and making sure you always put the right kind of stuff.
@@jherr Thanks for confirming Jack. I've not used or read Typescript as yet. Trying to focus (reduce my learning curve) on learning JavaScript, React & Next.
@@simonedwards7101 I'm in the same boat. After more than two years of pretty much full-time React and NodeJS coding, I'm still struggling with basic syntax and "shortcuts" (such as the gazillion varieties of expressing an arrow function). I fully intend to use Typescript when I feel more confident of my understanding of the underlying Javascript that it relies on.
Great content, thanks. It rather reinforced my feeling that I use hooks correctly than showed me something I didn't know, but still a good watch. Btw, why haven't you simply computed min and max within a single useMemo call, returning an object rather than a integer twice?
Fantastic video as usual. Thanks Jack! Lil question: Why did you end up wrapping onSetThreshold w/ useCallback? Looks like it is not being passed into a memoed child component, It also does not look like an expensive function. Thanks
I probably didn't have to. When it comes to useCallback expensive doesn't matter. That's just about useMemo and it's one of two reasons to use useMemo; maintaining referential identities and, as you point out, expensive synchronous computes.
Math.min expects multiple arguments, like Math.min(10,20,30). If I do this Math.min([10,20,30]) then it just wants to min that one array. If I do this Math.min(...[10,20,30]) that turns into Math.min(10,20,30) and I get the min value.
14:45 min max could have also been achieved with useCallback(type: 'min' | 'max') and Math[type](...) , reducing the code duplication a little, I think ;) unless this would memoize only the callback, not what it returns, in which case we'd have to use useMemo anyway, which would not be the optimisation we wanted welp, sometimes over-optimisation hurts the performance, when you don't know what you're doing, which proves the point of this video :D
But isn’t use memo doing triple equals too? If I have two objects I’m comparing and I change something deep inside the object .. it isn’t going to trigger the useMemo
@@jherr I have a useMemo that I use that depends on react query data..I change the object property deep inside the project on a post call api call success response… but my useMemo doesn’t rerun for the new values.. maybe i have to go deeper in the object for my useMemo dependency array?
Great content, I'm really thankful for all the work you put in your tutorials !! stupid question, i m writing it mid vid, I m still wrapping my head around the useMemo hook etc and i ve been thinking, if it so necessary, why is it not the default for state ? Sorry for my english.
Hi ! from official docs -> "You may rely on useMemo as a performance optimization, not as a semantic guarantee. In the future, React may choose to “forget” some previously memoized values and recalculate them on next render, e.g. to free memory for offscreen components." QUESTION: As long as there is a statement like that about useMemo, i really wonder how do people (including you:)) encourage developers to use it?
It manages referential identity, primarily. So if you are constructing arrays or objects, and those are passed to other components then, as of today, those will be referentially managed to not trigger downstream effects, memos, callbacks, or updates to memoized components.
@@jherr Well.. Please check what I expose in my comment :) Epecially this part: -> "In the future, React may choose to “forget” some previously memoized values and recalculate them on next render" . >>>IN FUTURE REACT MAY CHOOSE TO FORGET
@@erdemsoydan4117 First off they "may" do it, and they don't now. And then there is "choose", and I read that it that under some circumstances, most likely low memory, they may go into a mode where they will invalidate this simple first order cache. (BTW, it's important to understand that `useMemo` stores only the most recent value, not all possible outputs.) Because dependency arrays work on ===, and === works on value for strings, numbers and booleans, and references for objects, arrays, and functions, you have to have a mechanism to control references for complex object types for derived values, and those mechanisms are useCallback and useMemo. Without them you'd have to resort to pushing the derived data into mutable state, which is incorrectly modeling the relationship between mutable state, and data that we derive from that mutable state.
@@jherr Thanks for your precious time. I have been working on mid scale app and we are using Context API (yeah not redux :)) . That scale and and using context API made me have extreme attention on rerenders. So I have no problem about understanding them. I also use useMemo sometimes but whenever I use I was hesitating because of the remark about useMemo in official docs as I mentioned above. I have been waiting to ask about this to someone "a true expert" like you on this case. Thanks for your answer. (Also In your example, if I was working on it, I would use useCallback instead of where ever you used use Memo. e.g Count over threshold : {getCountOverThreshould()} . Is there any drawback about this? useCallback instead of useMemo?)
@@erdemsoydan4117 It's been a while since I've looked at the code in this video, but if the `countOverThreshold` is a simple value I don't really understand the value of creating an accessor for it. It's certainly less surprising from an API perspective to have it be a value, as opposed to an accessor that returns a value. Can you fill me in a little on your thinking and why you believe this approach is advantageous?
Great video Jack! Question - Is it ok to disable my linter when I want to have an empty useEffect dependency array? It will usually tell me I need to have something inside or remove it entirely.
Great tutorial. One question is now I've learned about making forms with useRef to prevent rerenders, I like how clean and simple the code is vs storing state in useState. What do you think?
Hey, thanks for sharing :-) I am not sure when you have a dependency you can use the use effect with his dependency array also, so when you need to use useEffect and when use Memo? BTW I didn't really understand what use Callback give us here because you show it without any dependency. Can you give an example please :-)
useEffect is "watch these values". useMemo is "compute this value from these values". and useCallback is the same thing but applied to functions. For custom hooks I would always use useMemo and useCallback because I don't know how the data and functions I return from the custom hook will be used. For component code, useCallback is optional, but I still recommend it if you are sending the callback to another component so that it retains referential integrity.
useCallback holds a function that needs to run when given dependency changes in this case, we wanted to fire it only with event.target and we didn't need useCallback's context to watch for updates from that dependent variable if we included "pokemon" variable somewhere in that "onSetSearch", it means we want useCallback to know about "pokemon" too i hope this makes sense ;)
These tutorials are great but tutorials that explains logics might be even better, for example: I had a hard time implementing a data fetch on scroll app on how to do that from both frontend and backend. Same with tables that have indexing at the bottom, on how to fetch data on indexing change (again from frontend and backend).
react-use has some excellent hooks to track scrolling, and you can use the data from those as dependencies on useEffects to fetch more data. Same thing with a page index. If the page index is a dependency of the fetch useEffect then the fetch will fire every time the page changes to go and get the data for that page.
That would be Github Copilot. Don't believe the FUD, it's not going to take your job. But it is going to accelerate your coding like I've never seen before.
For search is there a reason why you chose to refetch the data and do a filter rather than just filter the array that you already have locally? I guess refetching guarantees the latest data (which wouldnt help in this case) but on an onChange that seems like too many fetches imo. Thanks for the awesome video! Cheers!
The example is more about how to manage control flow. But in reality, yeah, it's a small dataset and in this case fetch is just going to returned the cached data anyway. I'd probably also add in some debounce tho. :)
There are a bunch, but the particular one I used was marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hediet.vscode-drawio I prefer the look of Excalidraw - excalidraw.com/ - but having the arrows snapping feature made it easier in this case.
Heh -- I rely on the linter to tell me when I need useCallback. My perhaps naive understanding is that useCallback is the mechanism to break infinite loops in the rendering/useEffect code. As the linter explains, a function that is needed only by one specific useEffect hook can often be refactored into a local function within the hook -- eliminating the need for useCallback. Your mileage may vary. :)
Oh.... and this is why Solid uses functions instead of primitive values in their createSignal, right? So essentially, since you invoke the function, the runtime "knows" what is dependent to something and renders only the appropriate part... is this a correct assumption Jack?
I remember writing a filter table function with hooks , and suddenly something just clicked.

@@jherr I think the conclusion need to be: do you want to make react to be Reactive? You need to use: useEffect, use Memo and use Callback :-)
These tutorials are great but tutorials that explains logics might be even better, for example:
I had a hard time implementing a data fetch on scroll app on how to do that from both frontend and backend.
Same with tables that have indexing at the bottom, on how to fetch data on indexing change (again from frontend and backend).
react-use has some excellent hooks to track scrolling, and you can use the data from those as dependencies on useEffects to fetch more data. Same thing with a page index. If the page index is a dependency of the fetch useEffect then the fetch will fire every time the page changes to go and get the data for that page.
@@jherr Thanks for the advice, backend was also a challenge (in some way)
Great tutorial sir, I have a question whats the name of the extension for auto suggestions you're using.
That would be Github Copilot. Don't believe the FUD, it's not going to take your job. But it is going to accelerate your coding like I've never seen before.
@@jherr I've signed for it couple weeks ago but i thought ur using something else haha. thanks for the quick response btw🙏
awesome work!
React hook form might be an interesting idea for a new video 😉
I've done a couple previously on React hook form. I might add it to a speed run though. It's a great library.
For search is there a reason why you chose to refetch the data and do a filter rather than just filter the array that you already have locally? I guess refetching guarantees the latest data (which wouldnt help in this case) but on an onChange that seems like too many fetches imo.
Thanks for the awesome video! Cheers!
The example is more about how to manage control flow. But in reality, yeah, it's a small dataset and in this case fetch is just going to returned the cached data anyway. I'd probably also add in some debounce tho. :)
Thanks for replying! That makes sense and I didn't know debounce was a thing tysm!
What plug-in are you using for diagrams in VS code?
Cool, right? marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hediet.vscode-drawio
@@jherr Very cool!
Amazing
what's your vscode theme color?
Night Wolf [black] and Operator Mono
I adore the diagram! Is this an extension or an OOTB feature? Thanks for the explanation about hooks, it was enlightening!
OOTB feature. It's always been there.
By the way, what is that diagram extension that you're using?
There are a bunch, but the particular one I used was marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hediet.vscode-drawio I prefer the look of Excalidraw - excalidraw.com/ - but having the arrows snapping feature made it easier in this case.
@@jherr Thanks!
You're really smart and stuff.
seems like you are in love with Pokemon hahahah
Great content!
Can someone explain the need for useCallback? I couldn't get it.
Thanks!
Heh -- I rely on the linter to tell me when I need useCallback. My perhaps naive understanding is that useCallback is the mechanism to break infinite loops in the rendering/useEffect code. As the linter explains, a function that is needed only by one specific useEffect hook can often be refactored into a local function within the hook -- eliminating the need for useCallback. Your mileage may vary. :)
What is theme u r using?
Can you make a video about your VS code add ons and code formatting? I really need to step up my game after seeing u code!!
Oh.... and this is why Solid uses functions instead of primitive values in their createSignal, right? So essentially, since you invoke the function, the runtime "knows" what is dependent to something and renders only the appropriate part... is this a correct assumption Jack?
Yes. Exactly.
Really awesome 👌👏
What is .dio files extension ? How does it work ?
It's handled by a diagramming tool extension. marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hediet.vscode-drawio
great video, thnx - just a small typo: it's Kent C Dodds, not Dobbs; or maybe it's a joke I don't get...
Thank you.
