What we learned optimizing Base UI: Patterns you can steal for faster React apps
Performance problems in React apps often come from perfectly "valid" code: context updates that rerender too much, event handlers that change identity, or state that's just a little too reactive.
While preparing the first stable release of Base UI, we had to confront these issues head-on. In this talk, I'll show concrete patterns we used to eliminate unnecessary re-renders, reduce subscription churn, and move work out of React's render cycle without sacrificing correctness.
You'll see real code examples, profiler traces, and techniques you can apply directly in your own apps and libraries.
