Explains how React 18 makes rendering interruptible only where you opt in, demonstrating the startTransition API to mark slow updates as low priority and the useTransition hook returning a transition function and an isPending flag for UI feedback. Uses a search-input + results example: typing is treated as an urgent update, results rendering becomes a transition that gets paused and restarted to avoid wasted work, keeping the UI responsive on slower devices.
