backstory
The Psychological Effects of useEffect
I live in Berlin
The land of sun and architecture
Gourmet Food
Conservative Nature
And the best airports
But we are not here to talk about airports
I WISH
Hooked yet?
Remember component lifecycles?
- componentDidMount()
- shouldComponentUpdate()
- componentDidUpdate()
- componentWillUnmount()
There were a lot
BUT
Can you guess when componentDidUpdate ran?
When the component updated
Too easy tho
Can you guess when useEffect runs?
EVERYWHERE
useEffect(() => {
// Your magic
})useEffect(() => {
// Your magic
return () => {
// Your clean up magic
}
})useEffect(() => {
// Your magic
return () => {
// Your clean up magic
}
// The dependencies array
}, [])
