Part of the Full Stack Developer Roadmap.

Summary

React's built-in mechanism for sharing client state (theme, auth status) across the component tree — a good fit for low-frequency updates without adding a library.

  • 2Notice performance issues when a context value changes very frequently.
  • 3Learn to split contexts by concern rather than one giant global context.
