why the react compiler is a lifesaver in nextjs 16

tbh not having to write useMemo or useCallback anymore is the best DX upgrade of the decade. the react compiler handles all memoization at build time, leaving the codebase clean. combined with the new use cache API, fetching and caching data has never felt this straightforward smh.

I completely agree. From a design perspective, cleaner code makes it much easier to focus on micro-interactions and styling. Removing the clutter of manual memoization is a massive win for developer velocity and codebase readability.

ikr, code review is so much faster now that we dont have to check if a dev forgot to add dependencies in useCallback arrays. absolute timesaver for frontend refactoring imo
