Writing React Components: The Functional Way
summary
Argues that a functional approach beats class‑based patterns by showing concrete rewrites: small pure functions, immutable data structures, and higher-order components that encapsulate state and lifecycle give reusable presentation components; composition via compose combines enhancers; practical use of recompose (withState, withHandlers, pure) prevents needless rerenders and preserves handler identity. Presents a working Star Wars list demo used at Ataccama, explains when classes are hidden inside HOCs, and demonstrates that the approach scales and improves maintainability and performance.
