    Correction (1:21) - First put the returned array from users.concat(newUser) in a new variable (i.e. newUsers). Then pass it to setUsers: setUsers(newUsers).

    Using indexes as keys is not always a bad idea. If the set of items is known and never changing, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be able to use the index. It may be an anti-pattern in most cases but if you know when it is fine to use, just keep that in mind and do it.

    Well that's what I thought. Then I found myself using them in multiple positions in the same app (rendering more than one list using indexes as keys). And I had that warning then a bug that it failed to render properly. There's no written rule that you can't, but only do it if you're doing it only once through the whole app.

    For the "Keys Should Actually Be Unique" part, the purpose of this is list ordering. E.g. if you use a non-data-derived `index` as the key and the list order changes, the renderer won't know and it will not update correctly. If your list is not changing order, it's fine to use an index. Also, it only needs to be unique per parent - so you can e.g. have identical keys in two separate lists rendering as long as those lists have a different parent.

    6:41 I agree a simple fetch call in a useEffect is a naive approach and Tanstack query is great, however how do you think they implement this under the hood? Also using useEffect. Much in the same way it also starts requesting the data after the component renders.

    Correct, Tanstack Query doesn't fix all the problems of data fetching in React. It does have patterns like prefetching and suspense mode, however, which allow you to render-as-you-fetch. Every pattern has its tradeoffs.

    ​@@MushrathChoudhury You can pass a function to setState(). This function has the correct state value as a parameter. Instead of setCount(count + 1), you can do setCount((previousCount) => previousCount + 1). const [count, setCount] = useState(0); useEffect(() => { const intervalId = setInterval(() => { setCount((previousCount) => previousCount + 1); }, 1000); return () => clearInterval(intervalId) }, []);

    The example at 1:21 doesn't work as well, you are not calling setUsers with the new array created from the concat metod so that example wont do anything just like the faulty example. To solve it use the result from the concat method as the argument in setUsers :)

    Blowing app your project with extra libraries it is not good either. You do not really need, for instance, React Query to perform fetching data unless your case is very specific.

    It said the component will rerender when the props change but I think a component only renders when a parent component renders due to a state change. Props changing does not cause a re render right?

    Love the tips here. Even an experienced dev can learn some things. But, I think useEffect is getting a bad rap. React was originally designed to fetch data after a component is rendered, so you'll always have some type of loading state, regardless of the library used. I wouldn't necessarily call that a "bad" UX. If you need the data earlier, then SSR is the way to go.

    If I'm using Next.js with app router, I like fetching data on the server in a React Server Component. If I need something more complex and across client components, I like Tanstack Query. I think each choice has its tradeoffs.

    Idk how I feel about "just use dedicated hooks to fetch data like swr, react query, or other library." It's alright to make the code work for now, but we introduce vendor lock-in to the project, a haunting tech debt that will lead us to long hours in the long run. However, I also agree that we shouldn't freely use the clunky-ass, hard to understand useEffect. To mediate this problem, I would introduce a context that contains the interface of "useDataFetcher," which is used by the components. The implementation is decided once at the top of the component tree, and this is where we the vendor hooks like swc and react-query are passed. It's not a perfect solution, as there is an extra layer of indirection now between the components and the vendor hooks, making it overkill for small projects. However, it will ease the whole process of migrating from one library to another.

    The thing about not using indexes for keys flat out is a bit silly and you're doing yourself a disservice if you take it at face value. This tip is very commonly shared as an axiom, but it is really not. In many cases, indexes are perfectly safe as keys, especially when the array you're rendering won't change or it will only grow at the end but not shuffle or grow at the beginning / in the middle.

    i think it has to do with virtual dom because when you mutate array or an object it still references the same address and virtual dom needs a new value to cause re render which only happens if you make a deep copy of the array\object
