Introducing: This Week In React ⚛️


Weekly coverage of interesting pull requests, discussion, and RFCs around React Core and React DOM. Every Friday.

The first issue is out today! Right here (thread) ➡️
🚀 The biggest shoutout this week goes to Alexander Nanberg (@alexnanberg) for working tirelessly on moving reactjs.org to @gatsbyjs v2 - Great to see it online 🙌 github.com/reactjs/reactj…
⚡️ Brian (@brian_d_vaughn) worked on a deep-dive video on how to use the new React Profiler. You should definitely check it out if you haven’t already!
🎉 Jérôme Steunou (JSteunou) and Joel Barbosa (joelbarbosa) landed their first patch in the newly released React 16.5.2 - A minor stability release. Congratulations! github.com/facebook/react…
💡Artemy Tregubenko (arty-name) filed a new RFC to allow React.Children.toArray() to treat <Fragment>s as transparent containers so they would be ignored in the array in favor of their children. Definitely an interesting use case - Feedback welcome! github.com/reactjs/rfcs/p…
🐢 The React team now owns the "scheduler" npm package. Dan (@dan_abramov) already ported over the React Scheduler - A package for cooperative scheduling in a browser environment and is used to implement concurrent mode in React. github.com/facebook/react…
🔎 Brian (@brian_d_vaughn) also worked on a new name for the experimental Tracing API (previously known as tracking). It’s used trace the cause of an update. I welcome the new name and think it’s great to avoid confusion. reactjs.org/blog/2018/09/1… github.com/facebook/react…
🕵️‍♀️ A mysterious React 16.6.0-alpha was released on npm this week - Right when everyone is talking about React Conf next month. I was not able to figure out what’s new, but maybe you can? npmjs.com/package/react/…
👏 Special thank you to our first time contributors who got their work merged this week: Maksim Markelov (mmarkelov) and Sam Kvale (skvale).


And of course to everyone else who’s working on making React better - You’re awesome!
And that was This Week In React.

👋
Thank you all for subscribing! 💕

Since quite a few already signed up, I decided to make a prettier website: philippspiess.com/this-week-in-r…

Another week has passed and it’s time for another This Week In React ⚛️.

Enable getDerivedStateFromError, Create React App 2.0, A Jest Helper for Concurrent Tests, and a lot more.

Subscribe at this-week-in-react.org or read the thread ➡️
💥 getDerivedStateFromError is a new lifecycle method that is invoked after an error has been thrown by a descendant component. With that, you directly update a component’s state based on the error. Learn more in the open docs PR.

github.com/facebook/react…
🎉 This week, Create React App 2.0 was released bringing a year’s worth of improvements with it. Most notably support for SASS and Babel 7. Special thanks to @timer150 and everyone else involved.

It’s Friday again: Time for the second issue of This Week In React ⚛️.

💌 Starting this week, there’s also an email newsletter. If you prefer that format, subscribe at this-week-in-react.org and tell your friends!

Now let’s go! Thread ➡️
🔥 Andrew (@acdlite) added pure(), a new HOC to bring PureComponent behavior to functional components. 🔥

const MyPureComponent = pure(MyComponent);

This is incredibly exciting and will be useful in so many situations. 🤯

github.com/facebook/react…
📚 Brian (@brian_d_vaughn) added an API that adds this.context in all callbacks of class components and simplifies migration to the new context:

class extends Component {
static contextType = MyContext;
render() {
return this.context;
}
}

STRATEGY TO 10X YOUR SALES IN 2019!

If you run any kind of business that requires sales of product or service, gather here on this #thread.

Let me show you how to increase your sales.

Powered by #SideHustleWithAbbey
It’s no more doubt every business has gotta get online and maximize the traffic that exists on the internet, but the truth is...

So many businesses are still finding it difficult harnessing the online presence.

Now, it’s not by merely putting your business on social media or
..having a fanpage, yes those are good BUT are not better let alone best.

So what are these strategies????

Simple! I’m going to make this very short and concise - straight to the point.

I’m going to be using example of one business I love the way the owner is pushing...

Sure !
Here we go for a #thread !
What were obstacles and traps when I started in astrophotography, or in general: "What should I pay attention to, when I begin in astrophotography?"
Well, first, a little advisory:
I really can tell what kind of problems you encounter when you begin because...
I'm still beginning 😬😬
So!
The first issue for me have been: I did not know my camera well and what it can do.
Almost any camera can do at least a nice astro landscape.
With the right settings, you could even capture the milky way with a high-end smartphone.

1. .@lirsgovng has issued a public notice, appointing employers as its agent, requesting employers to deduct and remit capital gains tax on payments to employees as compensations for loss of employment. Let’s look at this issue of taxing severance benefits. #Thread #TaxingNigeria
2. Whilst @LIRSGovNG agrees that compensation for loss of employment are free of personal income tax, it seek ways to proactively collect capital gains tax as may be prescribed by Capital Gains Tax Act, by holding employers responsible. #TaxingNigeria #SeveranceBenefit
3. Simply put, withholding tax (WHT) rules which applies under Personal Income Tax Act (PITA) is now being “imported” into Capital Gains Tax Act (CGTA). @lirsgovng purportedly rely on its powers to appoint anyone as its collection agents. #TaxingNigeria #SeveranceBenefit

2018 has been a great year and I have recounted on the great things that happened in it already here 👇

#Thread is the list books I consumed during the year

1. It started with Art of War - Sun Tzu
Valuable strategy in the book for life and business, I have it in my 2019 list again

2. Zero to One - @peterthiel
Impressive look into the art of innovation
3. Blue Ocean Strategy - Renée and Chan
One of the best reads of 2018
I went on recommending it throughout the year.

A compelling view of how to carve for your organization a strategy that wins long enough. Sequel to it Blue Ocean Shift (not read yet) @BlueOceanStrtgy

Imperfectly Perfect Love #Thread
"I haven't written for a while, I'm not even sure I can piece words together to form beautiful sentences that would appeal to you the reader, but I do have a story, a really beautiful story...." I paused. Would that make for a good intro? Was something missing? As I pondered, my
thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the bedroom door, and the sight of a bearded light-skinned face peeping
"Hey Teddy Bear, you up yet?" Chuks said, as he came in.
"No, you light-skinned bearded Ogre, I'm still fast asleep" I replied.
