Ben Ilegbodu - Frontend Architect @ Stitch Fix

Abstract:
React’s component-driven design simplifies reusing UI because chunks of markup can be encapsulated into custom components. Likewise, sharing traditional data utilities is straightforward because React is “Just JavaScript”™. But what about sharing non-visual component logic like state shape and lifecycle methods? React has had several approaches over its lifetime to solve this problem: mixins, higher-order components (HOCs), render props, and now hooks, each with their pros and cons.
In this session geared towards current React developers, let’s take a history lesson on sharing in React in order to better understand how modern-day custom hooks work and the problems they solve. By the end, not only will we know how hooks function, but we’ll also be equipped to pull out non-visual component logic into easily shareable custom hooks in our apps.
