summary
React claims that using JavaScript instead of a template language yields full expressiveness while a project called react fusion aims to teach the compiler React semantics to inline components and achieve near-zero-cost abstractions. React enforces immutability to enable concurrent rendering with a double-buffered async render phase and synchronous commit, unlocking scheduling and suspense features. Recent additions: a stable Context API, a built-in code-splitting API and react lazy, a profiler, memoization for functional components, a main-thread scheduler and experimental react cache.
