Excited to try out React 19? 🤩 While it's still in the canary stage, you can start experimenting with it by installing the canary version today. This update promises a smoother experience by automating what used to be manual optimizations.

React Compiler: The Magic Behind the Scenes

The star of React 19 is its new compiler. 🎉 This compiler transforms your React code into plain JavaScript, which boosts performance and, even better, frees you from constantly tweaking performance manually.

To optimize our React applications, we use some inbuilt methods like useMemo or useCallback. This tells React not to compile the code again if the inputs don’t change.

But if you forget to apply memoization, it results in wasting React resources and computational power. To deal with this, React 19 introduced React Compiler.

Say goodbye to manual optimizations and hello to cleaner code:

// No need for useCallback/useMemo
function Component() {
  return <div>Optimized!</div>;
}

Code explanation: The new compiler turns React code into optimized JavaScript, removing the need for manual optimizations like memoization.

No More Memoization Hooks

Remember the days of juggling between useCallback, useMemo, and memo to optimize performance? 😅 With React 19, those days are over. The new compiler optimizes your code behind the scenes, so you can drop these hooks and focus on writing beautiful, clean React components.

Memoization solves the complex calculation problems inside React, resulting in application optimization and performance improvements.

Previously, to apply Memoziation you had to use the useMemo hook. Here’s what that looked like in code:

//React 18 
import React, { useState, useMemo } from 'react';

const ExpensiveComponent = () => {
  const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
  const [input, setInput] = useState('');

  // Memoize expensive calculation
  const expensiveCalculation = useMemo(() => {
    console.log("Calculating...");
    let sum = 0;
    for (let i = 0; i < 1000000000; i++) {
      sum += i;
    }
    return sum;
  }, [count]); // Recalculate only when `count` changes

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Expensive Calculation: {expensiveCalculation}</h1>
      <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Increment Count ({count})</button>
      <input 
        type="text" 
        value={input} 
        onChange={(e) => setInput(e.target.value)} 
        placeholder="Type something"
      />
    </div>
  );
};

export default ExpensiveComponent;

Code Explanation:

• The expensiveCalculation the function is computationally heavy, but using useMemo, it's only recalculated when count changes.

• The input field can be updated without triggering a recalculation of expensiveCalculation, which optimizes performance.

Now with the compiler in React 19, this is no longer required. You can just write your code and React will apply the memoziation.

Look at this code example:

// No need for manual memoization React 19
function Component({ children }) {
  return <div>{children}</div>;
}

Code explanation: you no longer need to use useCallback or useMemo – React 19 automatically handles optimizations.

No forwardRef: Simplified Ref Handling

Using forwardRef to pass refs around used to be a bit of a chore. 😓 But in React 19, you can pass refs just like any other prop. This streamlines your component code and makes ref handling a breeze. 🧹

function Child({ innerRef }) {
  return <input ref={innerRef} />;
}

Code explanation :forwardRef is no longer required – instead, refs are passed like regular props.

The New use() Hook: A Game Changer

The versatile new use() hook replaces multiple hooks, such as useEffect for data fetching as well as useContext and useState for consuming context data. It simplifies your code by handling promises and context with a single, elegant solution.

Look at this code example:

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react';

const DataFetchingComponent = () => {
  const [data, setData] = useState(null);
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
  const [error, setError] = useState(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    const fetchData = async () => {
      try {
        const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
        const result = await response.json();
        setData(result);
      } catch (err) {
        setError(err.message);
      } finally {
        setLoading(false);
      }
    };

    fetchData();
  }, []);

  if (loading) return <p>Loading...</p>;
  if (error) return <p>Error: {error}</p>;

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Data:</h1>
      <pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre>
    </div>
  );
};

export default DataFetchingComponent;

Code Explanation:

• useEffect is triggered after the component mounts to initiate data fetching.

• We maintain loading, data, and error states to manage and display the appropriate UI.

• Once the data is fetched, the state updates, triggering a re-render to display the data.

Now with the help of the new use() hook in React 19, data fetching becomes easier and you don’t need to depend on state management hooks like useState() anymore.

Here is an example:

import React, { use } from 'react';

// Function to fetch data
async function fetchData() {
  const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
  if (!response.ok) {
    throw new Error('Failed to fetch data');
  }
  return response.json();
}

const DataFetchingComponent = () => {
  // `use()` suspends the component until the promise resolves
  const data = use(fetchData());

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>Data:</h1>
      <pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre>
    </div>
  );
};

export default DataFetchingComponent;

Code explanation:

• Suspense and use(): When you use use(), it suspends the component rendering until the promise resolves. If an error occurs, it can also trigger a Suspense error boundary.

• No need for useEffect: There's no need to manually manage data fetching with side effects, as React handles it under the hood.

• Error and loading states: These can now be managed globally using Suspense error boundaries without manually tracking states like loading or error.

Fetch Data with use() vs. useEffect

Fetching data used to require a bit of boilerplate with useEffect. With use(), you just resolve the promise and use React Suspense for a clean, easy data-fetching experience. 🧼 This means less code and more focus on what matters.

Use Context with use()

Handling context data has also become more straightforward. The new use() hook can now consume context directly, eliminating the need for useContext and making context management more intuitive. 🎯

Directives: A Fresh Approach

If you’ve been using Next.js, you might have seen directives already. 🌐 React 19 introduces directives to simplify component configuration. Use use client for client-side components and use server for server-side ones. It’s as easy as adding a string at the top of your file:

"use client";
function ClientComponent() {
  return <div>Client Side</div>;
}

Code explanation: Use use client and use server to declare client-side or server-side components.

Actions: Streamlined Form Handling

Forms just got a major upgrade with actions. 💥 Actions are functions connected to form submissions that can run on either the server or client side. This means cleaner code and a smoother form-handling process.

async function action(formData) {
  return await handleSubmit(formData);
}

Code explanation: Actions handle form submissions, running on the client or server.

Client Actions: A Practical Example

Client actions are great for immediate feedback. For example, alerting users with their input values has never been simpler. Just use use client and connect the form action to the form’s action prop. Easy peasy! 🥳

useFormStatus(): Managing Form State

Keep track of your form submissions with the useFormStatus() hook. 🕒 It helps manage form states like disabling the submit button while the form is pending. This is a must-have for smooth user experiences.

const { pending } = useFormStatus();
return <button disabled={pending}>Submit</button>;

Code explanation: useFormStatus() tracks form submission states, like disabling a button during submission.

useFormState(): Stateful Form Actions

We now have useFormState(), which is a new hook for managing form state. 🎛️ It’s similar to useState but works with form actions, allowing you to access both previous state and submitted data. It’s perfect for scenarios like adding items to a cart.

I feel useFormState() is closely associated with the features in the React Hook Form library, as its working features are mostly similar.

Here is a code example to help you understand it better:

import React from 'react';
import { useForm, useFormState } from 'react-hook-form';

const MyForm = () => {
  const { register, handleSubmit, control } = useForm();
  const { isSubmitting, isDirty, isValid } = useFormState({ control });

  const onSubmit = (data) => {
    console.log(data);
  };

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <div>
        <label htmlFor="firstName">First Name:</label>
        <input {...register('firstName', { required: true })} />
      </div>
      <div>
        <label htmlFor="lastName">Last Name:</label>
        <input {...register('lastName', { required: true })} />
      </div>
      <button type="submit" disabled={isSubmitting || !isValid}>
        Submit
      </button>
      <div>
        <p>Form is {isDirty ? 'dirty' : 'pristine'}</p>
        <p>Submitting: {isSubmitting ? 'Yes' : 'No'}</p>
      </div>
    </form>
  );
};

export default MyForm;

Code explanation:

1. Import Hooks: We import useForm and useFormState from react-hook-form.

2. Setup Form:

   • useForm: This hook initializes the form methods, including register, handleSubmit, and control.

   • useFormState: We use this hook to extract form-state properties like isSubmitting, isDirty, and isValid.

3. Register Inputs: We register each input field using the register function, specifying any validation rules (for example required).

4. Handle Submission: The onSubmit function handles the form submission, where you can perform your desired actions with the form data.

5. Form State Info: We display the form's current state (whether it's dirty or submitted) below the form.

Key Features of useFormState:

• Performance: useFormState only re-renders when the specific fields it's monitoring change, making it efficient.

• Controlled State: You can easily manage and observe the form's state without writing boilerplate code for handling changes and validations.

useOptimistic(): Enhancing User Experience

For real-time applications, the useOptimistic() hook is helpful. 💬 It allows for optimistic updates, making your app feel snappy by updating the UI instantly and syncing with the server in the background.

const [optimisticState, setOptimistic] = useOptimistic(initialState);

Code explanation: Enables optimistic UI updates before syncing with the server.

React is a user interface library that has been doing its job quite well for over a decade. The component architecture, uni-directional data flow, and declarative nature stand out in helping devs building production-ready, scalable software applications.

Over the releases (even up until the latest stable release of v18.x), React has provided various techniques and methodologies to improve application performance.

For example, the entire memoization paradigm has been supported using the React.memo() higher-order component, or with hooks like useMemo() and useCallback().

In programming, memoization is an optimization technique that makes your programs execute faster by caching the result of expensive computations.

Although React's memoization techniques are great for applying optimizations, as Uncle Ben (remember, Spiderman's uncle?) once said, "With great power comes great responsibility". So we as developers need to be a little more responsible in applying them. Optimization is great, but over-optimization can be a killer for the application's performance.

With React 19, the developer community has received a list of enhancements and features to boast about:

• An experimental open-source compiler. We will be focusing primarily on it in this article.

• React Server Components.

• Server Actions.

• Easier and more organic way of handling the document metadata.

• Enhanced hooks and APIs.

• ref can be passed as props.

• Improvements in asset loading for styles, images, and fonts.

• A much smoother integration with Web Components.

If these are exciting to you, I recommend watching this video that explains how each feature will impact you as a React developer. I hope you like it 😊.

The introduction of a compiler with React 19 is set to be a game-changer. From now on, we can let the compiler handle the optimization headache rather than keeping it on us.

Does this mean we do not have to use memo, useMemo(), useCallback, and so on anymore? No – we mostly don't. The compiler can take care of these things automatically if you understand and follow the Rules of React for components and hooks.

How will it do this? Well, we'll get to it. But before that, let's understand what a compiler is and whether it's justified to call this new optimizer for React code the React Compiler.

What is a Compiler, Traditionally?

Simply put, a compiler is a software program/tool that translates high-level programming language code (source code) into machine code. There are several steps to follow to compile source code and generate machine code:

• The lexical analyzer tokenizes the source code and generates tokens.

• The Syntax Analyzer creates an abstract syntax tree (AST) to structure the source code tokens logically.

• The Semantic Analyzer validates the semantic (or syntactic) correctness of the code.

• After all three types of analysis by the respective analyzers, some intermediate code gets generated. It is also known as the IR code.

• Then optimization is performed on the IR code.

• Finally, the machine code is generated by the compiler from the optimized IR code.

Now that you understand the basics of how a compiler works, let's learn about the React Compiler and understand how it works.

React Compiler Architecture

React compiler is a build-time tool that you need to configure with your React 19 project explicitly using the configuration options provided by the React tools ecosystem.

For example, if you are using Vite to create your React application, the compiler configuration will take place in the vite.config.js file.

React compiler has three primary components:

1. Babel Plugin: helps transform the code during the compilation process.

2. ESLint Plugin: helps catch and report any violations of the Rules of React.

3. Compiler Core: the core compiler logic that performs the code analysis and optimizations. Both Babel and ESLint plugins use the core compiler logic.

The compilation flow goes like this:

• The Babel Plugin identifies which functions (components or hooks) to compile. We will see some configurations later to learn how to opt in and out of the compilation process. The plugin calls the core compiler logic for each of the functions and finally creates the Abstract Syntax Tree.

• Then the compiler core converts the Babel AST into IR code, analyzes it, and runs various validations to ensure none of the rules are broken.

• Next, it tries to reduce the amount of code to be optimized by performing various passes to eliminate dead code. The code gets further optimized using memoization.

• Finally, in the code generation stage, the transformed AST is converted back to the optimized JavaScript code.

React Compiler in Action

Now that you know how React Compiler works, let's now dive into configuring it with a React 19 project so you can start learning about the various optimizations.

Understanding the problem: Without the React Compiler

Let's create a simple product page with React. The product page shows a heading with the number of products on the page, a list of products, and the featured products.

The component hierarchy and the data passing between the components look like this:

As you can see in the image above,

• The ProductPage component has three child components, Heading, ProductList, and FeaturedProducts.

• The ProductPage component receives two props, products and the heading.

• The ProductPage component computes the total number of products and passes the value along with the heading text value to the Heading component.

• The ProductPage component passes down the products prop to the ProductList child component.

• Similarly, it computes the featured products and passes the featuredProducts prop to the FeaturedProducts child component.

Here is how the source code of the ProductPage component may look:

import React from 'react'

import Heading from './Heading';
import FeaturedProducts from './FeaturedProducts';
import ProductList from './ProductList';

const ProductPage = ({products, heading}) => {
  const featuredProducts = products.filter(product => product.featured);
  const totalProducts = products.length;

  return (
    <div className="m-2">
      <Heading
        heading={heading}
        totalProducts={totalProducts} />

      <ProductList
        products={products} />

      <FeaturedProducts
        featuredProducts={featuredProducts} />  

    </div>
  )
}

export default ProductPage

Also, assume we use the ProductPage component in the App.js file like this:

import ProductPage from "./components/compiler/ProductPage";

function App() {

  // A list of food products    
  const foodProducts = [
    {
      "id": "001",
      "name": "Hamburger",
      "image": "🍔",
      "featured": true
    },
    {
      "id": "002",
      "name": "French Fries",
      "image": "🍟",
      "featured": false
    },
    {
      "id": "003",
      "name": "Taco",
      "image": "🌮",
      "featured": false
    },
    {
      "id": "004",
      "name": "Hot Dog",
      "image": "🌭",
      "featured": true
    }
  ];

  return (
      <ProductPage 
            products={foodProducts} 
            heading="The Food Product" />
  );
}

export default App;

That's all good – so where is the problem? The problem is that React proactively re-renders the child component when the parent component re-renders. An unnecessary rendering requires optimizations. Let's understand the problem fully first.

We'll add the current timestamp in each of the child components. Now the rendered user interface will look like this:

The big number you see beside the headings is the timestamp (using the simple Date.now() function from the JavaScript Date API) we have added to the component code. Now what happens if we change the value of the heading prop of the ProductPage component?

Before:

<ProductPage 
   products={foodProducts} 
   heading="The Food Product" />

And after (notice that we have made it plural for products by adding an s at the end of the heading value):

<ProductPage 
   products={foodProducts} 
   heading="The Food Products" />

Now you will notice an immediate change in the user interface. All three timestamps got updated. This is because all three components were re-rendered when the parent component was re-rendered due to the props change.

If you notice, the heading prop was passed only to the Heading component, and even then the other two child components re-rendered. This is where we need the optimizations.

Fixing the Problem: Without the React Compiler

As discussed before, React provides us with various hooks and APIs for memoization. We can use React.memo() or useMemo() to safeguard the components that are re-rendering unnecessarily.

For example, we can use React.memo() to memoize the ProductList component to ensure that unless the products prop is changed, the ProductList component will not be re-rendered.

We can use the useMemo() hook to memoize the computation for the featured products. Both implementations are indicated in the image below.

But again, recollecting the wise words of great Uncle Ben, over the last few years we have started over-using these optimization techniques. These over-optimizations can negatively impact the performance of your applications. So, the availability of the compiler is a boon for React developers as it lets them delegate many such optimizations to the compiler.

Let's now fix the problem using the React compiler.

Fixing the problem: Using the React Compiler

Again, React compiler is an opt-in build-time tool. It doesn't come bundled with React 19 RC. You need to install the required dependencies and configure the compiler with your React 19 project.

Before configuring the compiler, you can check if your codebase is compatible by executing this command on your project directory:

npx react-compiler-healthcheck@experimental

It will check and report:

• How many components can be optimized by the compiler

• If the Rules of React are followed.

• If there are any incompatible libraries.

If you find that things are compatible, it's time to install the ESLint plugin powered by the React compiler. This plugin will help you catch any violation of the rules of React in your code. Violating code will be skipped by the React compiler and no optimizations will be performed on it.

npm install eslint-plugin-react-compiler@experimental

Then open the ESLint configuration file (for example, .eslintrc.cjs for Vite) and add these configurations:

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    'eslint-plugin-react-compiler',
  ],
  rules: {
    'react-compiler/react-compiler': "error",
  },
}

Next, you'll use the Babel plugin for the React compiler to enable the compiler for your entire project. If you're starting a new project with React 19, I recommend that you enable the React compiler for the entire project. Let's install the Babel plugin for the React compiler:

npm install babel-plugin-react-compiler@experimental

Once installed, you need to complete the configuration by adding the options in the Babel config file. As we're using Vite, open the vite.config.js file and replace the content with the following code snippet:

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'

const ReactCompilerConfig = {/* ... */ };

// https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [react({
    babel: {
      plugins: [
        [
          "babel-plugin-react-compiler",
           ReactCompilerConfig
          ]
        ],
    },
  })],
})

Here, you've added the babel-plugin-react-compiler to the configuration. The ReactCompilerConfig is required to provide any advanced configuration like if you want to provide any custom runtime module or any other configurations. In this case, it's an empty object without any advanced configurations.

That's it. You are done configuring the React compiler with your code base to utilize its power. From now on, the React compiler will look into every component and hook in your project to try and apply optimizations to it.

If you want to configure the React compiler with Next.js, Remix, Webpack, and so on, you can follow this guide.

Optimized React App with React Compiler

Now you should have an optimized React app with the inclusion of the React compiler. So, let's run the same tests you did before. Again, change the value of the heading prop of the ProductPage component.

This time, you will not see the child components re-rendering. So the timestamp will not be updated either. But you will see the portion of the component where the data changed, as it will reflect the changes alone. Also, you won't have to use memo, useMemo(), or useCallback() in your code anymore.

You can see it working visually from here.

React Compiler in React DevTools

React DevTools version 5.0+ has built-in support for the React compiler. You will see a badge with the text Memo ✨ beside the components optimized by the React compiler. This is fantastic!

Diving Deep – How Does the React Compiler Work?

Now that you've seen how the React compiler works on React 19 code, let's deep dive into understanding what's happening in the background. We will use the React Compiler Playground to explore the translated code and the optimization steps.

We'll use the Heading component as an example. Copy and paste the following code inside the leftmost section of the playground:

const Heading = ({ heading, totalProducts }) => {
  return (
    <nav>
      <h1 className="text-2xl">
          {heading}({totalProducts}) - {Date.now()}
      </h1>
    </nav>
  )
}

You will see that some JavaScript code is generated immediately inside the _JS tab of the playground. The React compiler generates this JavaScript code as part of the compilation process. Let's go over it step-by-step:

function anonymous_0(t0) {
  const $ = _c(4);
  const { heading, totalProducts } = t0;
  let t1;
  if ($[0] === Symbol.for("react.memo_cache_sentinel")) {
    t1 = Date.now();
    $[0] = t1;
  } else {
    t1 = $[0];
  }
  let t2;
  if ($[1] !== heading || $[2] !== totalProducts) {
    t2 = (
      <nav>
        <h1 className="text-2xl">
          {heading}({totalProducts}) - {t1}
        </h1>
      </nav>
    );
    $[1] = heading;
    $[2] = totalProducts;
    $[3] = t2;
  } else {
    t2 = $[3];
  }
  return t2;
}

The compiler uses a hook called _c() to create an array of items to cache. In the code above, an array of four elements has been created to cache four items.

const $ = _c(4);

But, what are the things to cache?

• The component takes two props, heading and totalProducts. The compiler needs to cache them. So, it needs two elements in the array of cacheable items.

• The Date.now() part in the header should be cached.

• The JSX itself should be cached. There is no point in computing JSX unless either of the above changes.

So there are a total of four items to cache.

The compiler creates memoization blocks using the if-block. The final return value from the compiler is the JSX which depends on three dependencies:

• The Date.now() value.

• Two props, a heading and totalProducts

The output JSX needs re-computation when any of the above changes. This means that the compiler needs to create two memoization blocks for each of the above.

The first memoization block looks like this:

if ($[0] === Symbol.for("react.memo_cache_sentinel")) {
    t1 = Date.now();
    $[0] = t1;
} else {
    t1 = $[0];
}

The if-block stores the value of the Date.now() into the first index of the cacheable array. It re-uses the same every time unless it is changed.

Similarly, in the second memoization block:

if ($[1] !== heading || $[2] !== totalProducts) {
    t2 = (
      <nav>
        <h1 className="text-2xl">
          {heading}({totalProducts}) - {t1}
        </h1>
      </nav>
    );
    $[1] = heading;
    $[2] = totalProducts;
    $[3] = t2;
  } else {
    t2 = $[3];
  }

Here, the check is for the value changes for either heading or totalProducts props. If either of these changes, the JSX needs to be recomputed. All the values are then stored in the cacheable array. If there are no changes in the value, the previously computed JSX is returned from the cache.

You can now paste any other component source code into the left side and look into the generated JavaScript code to help you understand what's going on as we did above. This will help you to get a better grip on how the compiler performs the memoization techniques in the compilation process.

How Do You Opt in and Out of the React Compiler?

Once you've configured the React compiler the way we have done with our Vite project here, it's enabled for all the compilers and hooks of the project.

But in some cases, you may want to selectively opt-in for the React compiler. In that case, you can run the compiler in “opt-in” mode using the compilationMode: "annotation" option.

// Specify the option in the ReactCompilerConfig
const ReactCompilerConfig = {
  compilationMode: "annotation",
};

Then annotate the components and hooks you want to opt-in for compilation with the "use memo" directive.

// src/ProductPage.jsx
export default function ProductPage() {
  "use memo";
  // ...
}

Note that there is a "use no memo" directive as well. There might be some rare cases where your component may not be working as expected after compilation, and you want to opt out of the compilation temporarily until the issue is identified and fixed. In that case, you can use this directive:

function AComponent() {
  "use no memo";
  // ...
}
