ReactJS is very performant by default. But now and then you get a chance to make it even better. And the awesome React community has come up with some fantastic libraries.

Today we will talk about seven such libraries that can improve the quality of your code and at the same time improve performance.

Let’s begin.

1. React Query

React Query is known to be the missing state management library for React. In its documentation, it says, “Fetch, cache, and update data in your React applications all without touching any ‘global state’.”

Yes. This is exactly what it does. It helps us to manage the server state without any hassle. It can reduce the necessity for using a state management library like Redux.

Advantages

• Automatic caching
• Updates data automatically in the background
• Reduces code by a lot

Before React Query

Here is an example hook to fetch data using our own custom hook. It doesn't even support caching.

After React Query

Here is the code if we want to use React Query. Look how small it is.

Look how much it reduced our code.

2. React Hook Form

React Hook Form is the modern form-handling library that can take your form's performance to a whole new level.

Advantages

• Reduces code
