Show Notes React 03:53 - Unmount delay for animation 06:20 - Suspense with SSR released (or not because I think they are shelving it) Dan's tweet: https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1259614150386425858 09:24 - File based components Like Svelte and Vue This would look like a file with a special scoped tag per page. 11:50 - Prevent Default shortcuts 13:00 - No more useIsoLayoutEffect useLayoutEffect on SSR should just work without a custom hook Simple data fetching strategy based on promises 15:52 - Recommended hooks E.g. "here is the best way to do things" Official list of best practice hooks 18:25 - A good form strategy Bind inputs to state directly without any change handlers Inputs and forms all around need more magic - it's painful 20:43 - Write once deploy everywhere Not likely ever E.g. automatic transformation into react-native (obviously not going to happen) 22:28 - Compile time directives https://github.com/bukharim96/directive-x 25:11 - Slots instead of children Allows for things like named slots more explicit than children JSX 26:44 - Removal of htmlFor, className and all other abominations of html 29:09 - Import Raact from React for JSX to work Soon will be fixed https://github.com/babel/babel/pull/11154 react-require 32:31 - Better conditional / if statement syntax 33:09 - Fragments by default Just do it for us - the error message already knows 33:54 - Automatic key ids If mapping an object, check for common _id or id 36:36 - Simple scoped CSS built in 37:29 - Short hand for props with same name is prop={prop} 39:00 - Prop interpolation without backticks: name="$first $last" Or just backticks without brackets name=${first} ${last} instead of name={${first} ${last}} Tooling 39:43 - Story for typescript/prettier/babel 40:11 - Automatic a href client side routing 41:51 - Scaffolding and component generation Links Svelte Vue React Native NativeScript react-spring Paul Henschel Scream Sneeze: https://twitter.com/morganc_smith/status/1235332301044801538 ××× SIIIIICK ××× PIIIICKS ××× Scott: Software Engineering Daily Podcast Wes: PicQuic Screwdriver Shameless Plugs Scott: Sapper For Everyone - Sign up for the year and save 25%!
