Heuristics for optimizing React’s performance:
- If you can solve the problem by altering component hierarchy or state, prioritize that!
- Memoization is a solid strategy only if the cost of checking pays for itself with the time you save rendering.
- Use Lazy/Suspense API to progressively load components.
- Use the Transition API (
useTransition
/useDeferredValue
) when you’re really in a pickle (e.g something is computationally expensive, but not running it is not a choice).

When to use Object
VS Map
in Javascript:
Use Object
for records where you have a fixed and finite number of properties/fields known at author time, such as a config object or anything that is for one-time use in general.
Use Map
for dictionaries or hash maps where you have a variable number of entries, with frequent updates, whose keys might not be known at author time, such as an event emitter.
According to benchmarks, unless the keys are strings of small integers, Map
is indeed more performant than Object
on insertion, deletion and iteration speed, and it consumes less memory than an Object
of the same size.

Node tips: __dirname

The accessibility inspector in Firefox exposes Gecko’s accessibility tree rather than information from the platform accessibility layer.

instead.
To check how the internal roles are mapped to platform roles, look at the source of truth.
