Identifying components that re-render when a button is clicked in React
livecode
Task condition
It is necessary to determine which parts of the interface will be re-rendered after clicking the Render button and explain the reasons for such re-rendering.
import React from 'react';
export default function App() {
const forceUpdate = useForceUpdate();
return (
<div style={{ margin: '20px', padding: '20px', border: '2px solid green' }}>
<button onClick={forceUpdate}>Render</button>
<RenderCount />
<Parent />
</div>
);
}
const Parent = () => {
const [value, setValue] = React.useState('');
const handleChange = (e) => {
setValue(e.target.value);
};
return (
<form style={{ margin: '20px', padding: '20px', border: '2px solid blue' }}>
Input value is: {value}
<RenderCount />
<Child onChange={handleChange} />
</form>
);
};
const Child = ({ onChange }) => {
return (
<div style={{ padding: '20px', margin: '20px', border: '2px solid red' }}>
<input type="text" name="value" onChange={onChange} />
<RenderCount />
</div>
);
};
function RenderCount() {
const renderCount = React.useRef(1);
React.useEffect(() => {
renderCount.current += 1;
});
return (
<div style={{ marginTop: '10px' }}>
Render count: {renderCount.current}
</div>
);
}
Questions for analysis:
- Which components will receive a new render after calling
forceUpdate? - Why might
ParentandChildre-render or not? - How does the
RenderCounthook work and how does it reflect the number of renders? - What optimizations (e.g.,
React.memo) could change the behavior?
