description	React Hooks, TypeScript, component patterns, and modern React best practices. Use when writing React components, hooks, context, or using Suspense/ErrorBoundary/Lazy loading.

React

Based on React 19 with TypeScript. Always use functional components with Hooks.

Preferences

• Prefer TypeScript over JavaScript
• Prefer functional components over class components
• Prefer composition over inheritance
• Use useMemo and useCallback judiciously for performance optimization
• Avoid prop drilling with Context or composition

Quick Reference

Function Component with TypeScript

import { useState, useEffect, useCallback, useMemo } from 'react'

interface Props {
  title: string
  count?: number
  onUpdate: (value: string) => void
}

export function MyComponent({ title, count = 0, onUpdate }: Props) {
  const [value, setValue] = useState<string>('')

  const doubled = useMemo(() => count * 2, [count])

  const handleClick = useCallback(() => {
    onUpdate(value)
  }, [onUpdate, value])

  useEffect(() => {
    console.log('Component mounted or count changed:', count)
    return () => console.log('Cleanup')
  }, [count])

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{title} - {doubled}</h1>
      <button onClick={handleClick}>Click</button>
    </div>
  )
}
