  • React Router vs Redux First Routing
    2 projects | /r/codehunter | 30 Apr 2022
    However, it seems that react router is the overwhelmingly dominant browsing solution for react + redux apps. react-router has 28,355 stars on github to redux-first-routing's 76. This double source of truth issue seems like a common one. Why has redux first routing not seen wider adoption? How do people solve this problem with react router? Why is react router worth the inconvenience of connecting your components to both the router and redux state?

The docs for v4 don't go into detail on how to handle this. Many people nested a route for their app. However, when I do that, I get a stack overflow in the console with a print of the frames.

    One point of significance here is this from @TrevorRobinson's answer "the browser's automatic attempts at scroll restoration... ...mostly don't work for single-page apps..." Ok... I found consistent support for history.scrollRestoration, but apparently browsers are crappy at actually DOING the scroll restoration. Then that should be noted here, which would have saved me time today.

  • Front-end Guide

    Developer Experience - There are a number of tools that improves the development experience with React. React Developer Tools is a browser extension that allows you to inspect your component, view and manipulate its props and state. Hot reloading with webpack allows you to view changes to your code in your browser, without you having to refresh the browser. Front end development involves a lot of tweaking code, saving and then refreshing the browser. Hot reloading helps you by eliminating the last step. When there are library updates, Facebook provides codemod scripts to help you migrate your code to the new APIs. This makes the upgrading process relatively pain-free. Kudos to the Facebook team for their dedication in making the development experience with React great.
  • How to implement hot module reloading in a programming language?
    2 projects | /r/ProgrammingLanguages | 15 Nov 2022
    I am considering how to make my compiler (which outputs JavaScript), output patch changes, which somehow update the server or browser with the code changes, so you don't have to shutdown/restart the server or refresh the page. I was going to take a look at the react-hot-loader source code, but it's a little too abstract, it will take a while / few days at least to start to grok.

    I am starting to look through the source of react-hot-loader, but it is no insignificant beast. Can someone explain at a high level how this is implemented, just in enough detail so one could reason about how to reimplement this functionality in another programming language?
