Understand the concept

The React Compiler is a build-time optimization that automatically memoizes components and values when it is safe to do so.

Its goal is to reduce the need for manual optimizations like useMemo, useCallback, and React.memo while keeping components easier to write and maintain.

02 / Implementation

Component Without Manual Memoization

react-compiler.tsx
function UserCard({ user }) {
  return (
    <div>
      <h2>{user.name}</h2>
      <p>{user.email}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

export default function App() {
  const user = {
    name: "John",
    email: "john@example.com",
  };

  return <UserCard user={user} />;
}
