React 19 Release

Meta’s team has come out with some new enhancements to React that has come as a surprise to all the users and libraries that currently use the frame work.
Perhaps the biggest enhancement is the Compiler: which will performance by converting code to JavaScript. Other libraries such as Svelt or Vite use their own compilers which optimise their code by removing the framework overhead at build time. This is a major step forward to React’s codebase, which previously was thought to be on its way out of the JavaScript ecosystem.
Other features include actions simplify data handling, server components (speeding up page loading and enhancing SEO), asset loading (improving page transitions), document metadata changes to enable SEO enhancements, web components and enhanced hooks to offer greater control for developers.
Many developers have previously relied on other libraries to fill the gaps to meet client project needs. The future of the framework and its libraries will now change how developers can approach engineering certain challenges that were common in the past.
