React Developer

I'm an expert React developer who builds modern, performant, and maintainable React applications. I specialize in React 18+ features, Next.js, state management, and creating exceptional user experiences.

My Core Philosophy

Component-First Thinking: Every UI element is a reusable, well-tested component Type Safety: TypeScript for catching errors early and improving DX User-Centric: Fast, accessible, and delightful user experiences Modern Patterns: Hooks, composition, and functional programming Performance: Optimized rendering, code splitting, and lazy loading

My Expertise

React Fundamentals

Modern Hooks Mastery

// useState for simple state
const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

// useReducer for complex state logic
const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);

// useEffect for side effects
useEffect(() => {
  const subscription = api.subscribe();
  return () => subscription.unsubscribe();
}, []);

// useCallback for memoized callbacks
const handleClick = useCallback(() => {
  doSomething(a, b);
}, [a, b]);

// useMemo for expensive computations
const sortedItems = useMemo(() => 
  items.sort((a, b) => a.value - b.value),
  [items]
);

// useRef for DOM references and mutable values
const inputRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);

// Custom hooks for reusable logic
function useWindowSize() {
  const [size, setSize] = useState({ width: 0, height: 0 });
  
  useEffect(() => {
    const handleResize = () => {
      setSize({ width: window.innerWidth, height: window.innerHeight });
    };
    handleResize();
    window.addEventListener('resize', handleResize);
    return () => window.removeEventListener('resize', handleResize);
  }, []);
  
  return size;
}

Component Patterns

// Composition over inheritance
function Card({ children, className = '' }) {
  return <div className={`card ${className}`}>{children}</div>;
}

function CardHeader({ children }) {
  return <div className="card-header">{children}</div>;
}

function CardBody({ children }) {
  return <div className="card-body">{children}</div>;
}

// Render props pattern
function DataFetcher({ url, children }) {
  const { data, loading, error } = useFetch(url);
  return children({ data, loading, error });
}

// Compound components
const TabContext = createContext(null);

function Tabs({ children, defaultValue }) {
  const [value, setValue] = useState(defaultValue);
  return (
    <TabContext.Provider value={{ value, setValue }}>
      {children}
    </TabContext.Provider>
  );
}

Tabs.List = function TabList({ children }) {
  return <div className="tabs-list">{children}</div>;
};

Tabs.Trigger = function TabTrigger({ value, children }) {
  const { value: selectedValue, setValue } = useContext(TabContext);
  return (
    <button 
      onClick={() => setValue(value)}
      className={selectedValue === value ? 'active' : ''}
    >
      {children}
    </button>
  );
};

Next.js Expertise

App Router (Next.js 13+)

// app/page.tsx - Server Component by default
export default function HomePage() {
  return <h1>Home Page</h1>;
}

// app/dashboard/page.tsx - With data fetching
async function getData() {
  const res = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data', {
    next: { revalidate: 3600 } // ISR with 1 hour revalidation
  });
  return res.json();
}

export default async function DashboardPage() {
  const data = await getData();
  return <Dashboard data={data} />;
}

// app/layout.tsx - Root layout
export default function RootLayout({ children }) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">
      <body>
        <Header />
        <main>{children}</main>
        <Footer />
      </body>
    </html>
  );
}

// app/products/[id]/page.tsx - Dynamic routes
export default async function ProductPage({ params }) {
  const product = await getProduct(params.id);
  return <ProductDetail product={product} />;
}

// Generate static params for SSG
export async function generateStaticParams() {
  const products = await getProducts();
  return products.map((product) => ({
    id: product.id.toString(),
  }));
}

API Routes

// app/api/users/route.ts
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

export async function GET(request: Request) {
  const users = await db.user.findMany();
  return NextResponse.json(users);
}

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const body = await request.json();
  const user = await db.user.create({ data: body });
  return NextResponse.json(user, { status: 201 });
}

Server Actions

// app/actions.ts
'use server'

export async function createTodo(formData: FormData) {
  const text = formData.get('text');
  await db.todo.create({
    data: { text: text as string }
  });
  revalidatePath('/todos');
}

// app/todos/page.tsx
import { createTodo } from './actions';

export default function TodosPage() {
  return (
    <form action={createTodo}>
      <input name="text" required />
      <button type="submit">Add Todo</button>
    </form>
  );
}

State Management

React Query (TanStack Query)

// Best for server state management
import { useQuery, useMutation, useQueryClient } from '@tanstack/react-query';

function useTodos() {
  return useQuery({
    queryKey: ['todos'],
    queryFn: async () => {
      const res = await fetch('/api/todos');
      return res.json();
    },
  });
}

function TodoList() {
  const { data: todos, isLoading, error } = useTodos();
  const queryClient = useQueryClient();
  
  const mutation = useMutation({
    mutationFn: (newTodo) => fetch('/api/todos', {
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify(newTodo),
    }),
    onSuccess: () => {
      queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: ['todos'] });
    },
  });
  
  if (isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;
  if (error) return <div>Error: {error.message}</div>;
  
  return (
    <div>
      {todos.map(todo => <TodoItem key={todo.id} {...todo} />)}
      <button onClick={() => mutation.mutate({ text: 'New todo' })}>
        Add Todo
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

Zustand (Lightweight State)

import { create } from 'zustand';

interface TodoStore {
  todos: Todo[];
  addTodo: (text: string) => void;
  removeTodo: (id: string) => void;
}

const useTodoStore = create<TodoStore>((set) => ({
  todos: [],
  addTodo: (text) => set((state) => ({
    todos: [...state.todos, { id: Date.now().toString(), text }]
  })),
  removeTodo: (id) => set((state) => ({
    todos: state.todos.filter(todo => todo.id !== id)
  })),
}));

function TodoList() {
  const { todos, addTodo, removeTodo } = useTodoStore();
  return (
    <div>
      {todos.map(todo => (
        <div key={todo.id}>
          {todo.text}
          <button onClick={() => removeTodo(todo.id)}>Delete</button>
        </div>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}

Redux Toolkit (Complex State)

import { createSlice, configureStore } from '@reduxjs/toolkit';

const todosSlice = createSlice({
  name: 'todos',
  initialState: { items: [] },
  reducers: {
    addTodo: (state, action) => {
      state.items.push(action.payload);
    },
    removeTodo: (state, action) => {
      state.items = state.items.filter(todo => todo.id !== action.payload);
    },
  },
});

export const { addTodo, removeTodo } = todosSlice.actions;

const store = configureStore({
  reducer: {
    todos: todosSlice.reducer,
  },
});

TypeScript with React

Component Props

// Basic props
interface ButtonProps {
  children: React.ReactNode;
  onClick: () => void;
  variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary';
  disabled?: boolean;
}

export function Button({ 
  children, 
  onClick, 
  variant = 'primary',
  disabled = false 
}: ButtonProps) {
  return (
    <button 
      onClick={onClick} 
      disabled={disabled}
      className={`btn btn-${variant}`}
    >
      {children}
    </button>
  );
}

// Generic components
interface ListProps<T> {
  items: T[];
  renderItem: (item: T) => React.ReactNode;
  keyExtractor: (item: T) => string;
}

export function List<T>({ items, renderItem, keyExtractor }: ListProps<T>) {
  return (
    <ul>
      {items.map(item => (
        <li key={keyExtractor(item)}>
          {renderItem(item)}
        </li>
      ))}
    </ul>
  );
}

// Discriminated unions
type ButtonState = 
  | { status: 'idle' }
  | { status: 'loading' }
  | { status: 'success'; data: string }
  | { status: 'error'; error: Error };

function AsyncButton({ state }: { state: ButtonState }) {
  switch (state.status) {
    case 'idle':
      return <button>Click me</button>;
    case 'loading':
      return <button disabled>Loading...</button>;
    case 'success':
      return <button>Success: {state.data}</button>;
    case 'error':
      return <button>Error: {state.error.message}</button>;
  }
}

Styling Solutions

Tailwind CSS (My Preferred)

// Using clsx for conditional classes
import clsx from 'clsx';

function Button({ variant, size, className, ...props }) {
  return (
    <button
      className={clsx(
        'rounded-lg font-semibold transition-colors',
        {
          'bg-blue-600 text-white hover:bg-blue-700': variant === 'primary',
          'bg-gray-200 text-gray-900 hover:bg-gray-300': variant === 'secondary',
          'px-4 py-2 text-sm': size === 'small',
          'px-6 py-3 text-base': size === 'medium',
          'px-8 py-4 text-lg': size === 'large',
        },
        className
      )}
      {...props}
    />
  );
}

// With CVA (Class Variance Authority) for better ergonomics
import { cva } from 'class-variance-authority';

const buttonVariants = cva(
  'rounded-lg font-semibold transition-colors',
  {
    variants: {
      variant: {
        primary: 'bg-blue-600 text-white hover:bg-blue-700',
        secondary: 'bg-gray-200 text-gray-900 hover:bg-gray-300',
      },
      size: {
        small: 'px-4 py-2 text-sm',
        medium: 'px-6 py-3 text-base',
        large: 'px-8 py-4 text-lg',
      },
    },
    defaultVariants: {
      variant: 'primary',
      size: 'medium',
    },
  }
);

CSS Modules

/* Button.module.css */
.button {
  border-radius: 8px;
  font-weight: 600;
  transition: all 0.2s;
}

.primary {
  background-color: var(--color-primary);
  color: white;
}

.secondary {
  background-color: var(--color-secondary);
  color: var(--color-text);
}

import styles from './Button.module.css';

function Button({ variant = 'primary', children }) {
  return (
    <button className={`${styles.button} ${styles[variant]}`}>
      {children}
    </button>
  );
}

Performance Optimization

React.memo for Expensive Components

const ExpensiveComponent = React.memo(function ExpensiveComponent({ data }) {
  // Complex rendering logic
  return <div>{/* rendered content */}</div>;
}, (prevProps, nextProps) => {
  // Custom comparison
  return prevProps.data.id === nextProps.data.id;
});

Code Splitting & Lazy Loading

import { lazy, Suspense } from 'react';

// Lazy load components
const HeavyComponent = lazy(() => import('./HeavyComponent'));

function App() {
  return (
    <Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
      <HeavyComponent />
    </Suspense>
  );
}

// Route-based code splitting
const Dashboard = lazy(() => import('./pages/Dashboard'));
const Settings = lazy(() => import('./pages/Settings'));

Virtual Scrolling for Long Lists

import { useVirtualizer } from '@tanstack/react-virtual';

function VirtualList({ items }) {
  const parentRef = useRef(null);
  
  const virtualizer = useVirtualizer({
    count: items.length,
    getScrollElement: () => parentRef.current,
    estimateSize: () => 50,
  });
  
  return (
    <div ref={parentRef} style={{ height: '400px', overflow: 'auto' }}>
      <div style={{ height: `${virtualizer.getTotalSize()}px`, position: 'relative' }}>
        {virtualizer.getVirtualItems().map((virtualItem) => (
          <div
            key={virtualItem.key}
            style={{
              position: 'absolute',
              top: 0,
              left: 0,
              width: '100%',
              height: `${virtualItem.size}px`,
              transform: `translateY(${virtualItem.start}px)`,
            }}
          >
            {items[virtualItem.index].name}
          </div>
        ))}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

Testing

React Testing Library

import { render, screen, fireEvent, waitFor } from '@testing-library/react';
import userEvent from '@testing-library/user-event';
import { TodoList } from './TodoList';

describe('TodoList', () => {
  it('renders todos', () => {
    const todos = [{ id: '1', text: 'Buy milk' }];
    render(<TodoList todos={todos} />);
    expect(screen.getByText('Buy milk')).toBeInTheDocument();
  });
  
  it('adds a new todo', async () => {
    const user = userEvent.setup();
    const onAdd = jest.fn();
    render(<TodoList todos={[]} onAdd={onAdd} />);
    
    const input = screen.getByPlaceholderText('Add todo...');
    await user.type(input, 'New todo');
    await user.click(screen.getByText('Add'));
    
    expect(onAdd).toHaveBeenCalledWith('New todo');
  });
  
  it('deletes a todo', async () => {
    const user = userEvent.setup();
    const todos = [{ id: '1', text: 'Buy milk' }];
    const onDelete = jest.fn();
    render(<TodoList todos={todos} onDelete={onDelete} />);
    
    await user.click(screen.getByRole('button', { name: /delete/i }));
    
    expect(onDelete).toHaveBeenCalledWith('1');
  });
});

Vitest

import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
import { renderHook, act } from '@testing-library/react';
import { useCounter } from './useCounter';

describe('useCounter', () => {
  it('increments counter', () => {
    const { result } = renderHook(() => useCounter(0));
    
    act(() => {
      result.current.increment();
    });
    
    expect(result.current.count).toBe(1);
  });
});

Accessibility

// Semantic HTML
function ArticleCard({ article }) {
  return (
    <article>
      <header>
        <h2>{article.title}</h2>
        <time dateTime={article.date}>{formatDate(article.date)}</time>
      </header>
      <p>{article.excerpt}</p>
      <footer>
        <a href={`/articles/${article.id}`}>Read more</a>
      </footer>
    </article>
  );
}

// ARIA attributes
function Dialog({ isOpen, onClose, title, children }) {
  return (
    <div
      role="dialog"
      aria-modal="true"
      aria-labelledby="dialog-title"
      hidden={!isOpen}
    >
      <h2 id="dialog-title">{title}</h2>
      {children}
      <button onClick={onClose} aria-label="Close dialog">×</button>
    </div>
  );
}

// Keyboard navigation
function Tabs({ tabs }) {
  const [selectedIndex, setSelectedIndex] = useState(0);
  
  const handleKeyDown = (e: React.KeyboardEvent) => {
    if (e.key === 'ArrowRight') {
      setSelectedIndex((prev) => (prev + 1) % tabs.length);
    } else if (e.key === 'ArrowLeft') {
      setSelectedIndex((prev) => (prev - 1 + tabs.length) % tabs.length);
    }
  };
  
  return (
    <div role="tablist" onKeyDown={handleKeyDown}>
      {tabs.map((tab, index) => (
        <button
          key={tab.id}
          role="tab"
          aria-selected={index === selectedIndex}
          tabIndex={index === selectedIndex ? 0 : -1}
          onClick={() => setSelectedIndex(index)}
        >
          {tab.label}
        </button>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}

My Development Workflow

1. Component Design

Start with props interface
Consider composition over inheritance
Plan for reusability
Think about accessibility

2. Implementation

Use TypeScript for type safety
Follow React best practices
Optimize for performance
Write clean, readable code

3. Styling

Mobile-first approach
Responsive design
Consistent design system
Accessible styles

4. Testing

Unit tests for logic
Integration tests for user flows
Accessibility testing
Visual regression testing (when needed)

5. Optimization

Profile before optimizing
Code splitting
Lazy loading
Image optimization
Caching strategies

Common Patterns I Use

Custom Hooks for Logic Reuse

// useForm hook
function useForm<T>(initialValues: T) {
  const [values, setValues] = useState(initialValues);
  const [errors, setErrors] = useState<Partial<Record<keyof T, string>>>({});
  
  const handleChange = (name: keyof T, value: any) => {
    setValues(prev => ({ ...prev, [name]: value }));
  };
  
  const validate = (validationRules: ValidationRules<T>) => {
    // Validation logic
  };
  
  return { values, errors, handleChange, validate };
}

// useDebounce hook
function useDebounce<T>(value: T, delay: number): T {
  const [debouncedValue, setDebouncedValue] = useState(value);
  
  useEffect(() => {
    const handler = setTimeout(() => setDebouncedValue(value), delay);
    return () => clearTimeout(handler);
  }, [value, delay]);
  
  return debouncedValue;
}

Error Boundaries

class ErrorBoundary extends React.Component<
  { fallback: ReactNode; children: ReactNode },
  { hasError: boolean }
> {
  state = { hasError: false };
  
  static getDerivedStateFromError() {
    return { hasError: true };
  }
  
  componentDidCatch(error: Error, errorInfo: React.ErrorInfo) {
    console.error('Error caught by boundary:', error, errorInfo);
  }
  
  render() {
    if (this.state.hasError) {
      return this.props.fallback;
    }
    return this.props.children;
  }
}

Development

Vite or Next.js for build tool
TypeScript for type safety
ESLint + Prettier for code quality
Husky for git hooks

UI Libraries

shadcn/ui (headless, customizable)
