Feedback I got yesterday was mostly: "I tried it but it showed a lot of findings, I looked at the first two and they were false-positives so I dismissed it"
The false-positives would go away with better config, but people need to see the benefit _immediately_

✂️ If you're using knip at work, try and get your employer to sponsor @webpro.nl
✂️ Thank you, sponsors!
We've officially hit €500/month in sponsorships ❤️

Most of them are supporting Knip for quite a while already which I truly appreciate! 🙏

Async work in @react.dev has come a long way. If you're still using fetches inside of useEffects you are behind the times. React 19.2 has a full async ecosystem now. Let's learn it in just 10 minutes! youtu.be/KI4gjUrOfOs

I was today years old when I learned that if you have an unbound generic T and a variable that is T | null and you do a control-flow narrowing by checking if (variable !== null), you’ll wind up with T & ({} | undefined) which is so weird but somewhat logical as T could contain undefined in the union

📚 As promised, a quick writeup on how syncing state - even if it’s between server and client state - can be avoided if we’d just derive state instead:

How to use derived state in React to keep client state and server data aligned without manual sync or effects.

📚 Whenever I see useCallback, I wonder: why do we need it here? And a lot of the times, when I look deeper, I see that it actually doesn’t do anything. I think a lot of code-bases would be better of just not memoizing at all - and then let the compiler do it for you:

I turn on `verbatimModuleSyntax` and jest starts to fail because our jest.config is in TS with ESM syntax, but package.json doesn’t say type:module so now it assumes CJS and everything is on fire either way 🔥. This is what hell must feel like 😂

Today I learned why this:
const value = useRef(null)
if (!value.current) {
value.current = init()
}
_can_ be better than:
const [value] = useState(init)
Hint: StrictMode is involved 😜
Guess it’s time to update my blogpost / write a new one.

useState for one-time initializations
Why you shouldn't rely on useMemo for guaranteed referential stability but prefer useState instead
