Optimize React Rerenders

Agent skill
1 skill

Eliminates wasted React re-renders by measuring first then fixing — profile with the React DevTools Profiler (flamegraph + "why did this render") and why-did-you-render to find the actual offenders, then apply the right fix: stable references (hoist constants, useCallback/useMemo only where a referentially-equal prop/dep actually matters), correct list keys (stable id, never index), React.memo with a custom comparator on genuinely-hot leaf components, context splitting + selector subscriptions (useSyncExternalStore / Zustand / use-context-selector) to stop whole-tree re-renders, derive-don't-store to kill redundant state, and list virtualization (TanStack Virtual) for long lists — while knowing when NOT to memo (cheap renders, unstable deps, and the React 19 Compiler which auto-memoizes and makes most manual memo dead weight).
