As a Software Engineer and DJ, I have learned that writing clean React/Typescript code is like mixing a great set— small mistakes can throw off the entire flow. Just like a bad transition can really throw off the feeling on the dancefloor(if the crowd catches it), certain missteps in React can lead to buggy, slow and unmaintainable code. But let's get to it! Here I'll break down four common mistakes developers make in React and of course a few ways to avoid them. I'll use a few DJing analogies to keep it even more fun!
