React 18, the much-awaited version of React is out with exciting features like automatic batching, a new API –startTransition, and streaming server-side rendering with support for Suspense. What’s so special about this newer version is its unique “concurrent rendering” method. In the earlier versions of React, the rendering process was synchronous and non-interruptible where the UI would lock during long render processes and not respond to user input instantly. Using React 18, the rendering process can be made asynchronous and can be interrupted, paused, resumed, and even abandoned enabling developers to create a more fluid user experience.
