React Performance

Unblocking the Main Thread: A Deep Dive into Web Workers in React

Let’s be real for a second. We’ve all been there: you build a beautiful dashboard, implement a complex data filter or a large CSV parser, and the moment the user clicks “Process,” the UI locks up. The spinner freezes, the hover effects die, and the browser screams “Page Unresponsive.”

Deep Dive: Profiling React Performance with the Chrome DevTools Performance Tab

Deep Dive: Profiling React Performance with the Chrome DevTools Performance Tab # If you’ve been in the React game for a while, you know the feeling. Your application logic is sound, your useMemo hooks are in place, and the React Profiler says your component render times are “reasonable.” Yet, when you open the app on a mid-tier Android device or an older laptop, it feels sluggish. The scroll stutters. The input lags.

Banishing the Spinner: Advanced Asset Pre-loading Strategies for React SPAs

If there is one thing that kills conversion rates faster than a 404 error, it’s the loading spinner. In the context of 2025 web development, where Core Web Vitals determine your search ranking and user expectations are instantaneous, the “waterfall” loading pattern of traditional Single Page Applications (SPAs) is no longer acceptable.

Stop Shipping Dead Code: Mastering Tree Shaking in React Applications

It’s 2026. Internet speeds have increased, but so has the complexity of the average web application. Your users might be on 5G, but they are also dealing with bloated JavaScript bundles that parse slowly on mid-range mobile devices. If your React application takes three seconds just to become interactive (TTI), you’ve already lost a significant chunk of your audience.

Rendering Millions: Mastering List Virtualization with TanStack Virtual in React

It’s 2025. Browsers are faster, JavaScript engines are marvels of engineering, and devices have more RAM than the servers we used a decade ago. Yet, one thing remains painfully consistent: if you try to shove 10,000 DOM nodes into a webpage at once, the browser will choke.

Exorcising Ghost Renders: Advanced Patterns for React Performance

It’s 3 AM. You’ve just shipped a feature. The logic is sound, the tests pass, but the UI feels… heavy. Input fields lag by a fraction of a second. Animations stutter on mobile devices. You check your network tab—it’s clean. You check your bundle size—it’s optimized.
