Ever noticed UI lag when typing in a search bar that filters a large list? 🤔 That’s because every keystroke triggers expensive computations.
With useDeferredValue
, React prioritizes user interactions while delaying non-critical updates. This keeps the UI smooth and responsive!
✨ Example Use Case:
Imagine a search bar filtering a huge dataset. Instead of blocking the UI with every keystroke, useDeferredValue ensures the input remains fast while the list updates with a slight delay.
🔹 Without useDeferredValue → Laggy UI 😓
🔹 With useDeferredValue → Smooth experience ⚡
Try it out and feel the difference! 🚀
