React JS: Best Practices, Pitfalls & Performance Tweaks for 2025
I’ve been working on a mid-size React project and started noticing performance lags and bloated component trees. I optimized a few things like:
Using useMemo() and useCallback() smartly (but not overusing)
Breaking components into smaller reusable ones
Lazy loading routes and components
But I’d love to know:
What are your go-to patterns for keeping React apps lean?
Are there any anti-patterns you see often in junior dev codebases?
Have you used React Server Components or Signals yet?
Share your tips, tools, or even code snippets. Let’s build a solid thread of modern React wisdom!
