πŸš€ Building Smarter Interfaces with React.js: My Recent Learnings + Tips!

Hey Devs! πŸ‘‹

I've been deep-diving into React.js lately, and I wanted to share some cool things I’ve learned β€” and also hear from YOU about your favorite tips, tricks, or gotchas.


🧠 A Few Things That Helped Me Level Up:

  1. Component Folder Structure

    β†’ Breaking down features into components, hooks, and utils folders helps keep things scalable.

  2. React Router v7

    β†’ Loving the new createBrowserRouter and route loaders – clean and powerful!

  3. Conditional Rendering with Skeleton Loaders

    β†’ Improves UX massively when dealing with async data (especially with libraries like react-query or SWR).

  4. Custom Hooks for API Calls

    β†’ Reusable logic with useAxios or useFetch keeps components clean and focused.

  5. Theming with Tailwind + Context API

    β†’ Dark/light toggle done right πŸ”₯


πŸ›  Stack I’m Using:

  • React.js (obviously πŸ˜„)
  • React Router v7
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Axios
  • Firebase/Auth
  • Framer Motion (for subtle animations)
  • React Query

❓How about you?

What’s your current React stack? Any favorite tools, packages, or performance tricks you can’t live without?

Let’s learn from each other β€” drop your thoughts in the comments!


Happy coding!
