Design patterns and logic reusability

On our cosmic journey through the world of React, efficient use of resources is key to mission success. Just as space engineers use proven designs for different spaceship modules, we too can leverage design patterns in React to maximize code reusability and create more scalable applications.

Rendering and composition patterns

1. Higher-Order Components (HOC)

Higher-Order Components (HOC) are functions that take a component and return a new, enhanced component. This is a pattern based on the principle of composition, not inheritance.

1// Simple HOC adding time tracking functionality
2function withTimer(WrappedComponent) {
3  return function WithTimer(props) {
4    const [startTime] = useState(Date.now());
5    const [currentTime, setCurrentTime] = useState(Date.now());
6
7    useEffect(() => {
8      const timer = setInterval(() => {
9        setCurrentTime(Date.now());
10      }, 1000);
11
12      return () => clearInterval(timer);
13    }, []);
14
15    const elapsedTime = (currentTime - startTime) / 1000;
16
17    return (
18      <WrappedComponent
19        {...props}
20        elapsedTime={elapsedTime}
21      />
22    );
23  };
24}
25
26// Using the HOC
27function MissionControl({ missionName, elapsedTime }) {
28  return (
29    <div className="mission-control">
30      <h2>Mission: {missionName}</h2>
31      <p>Duration: {elapsedTime.toFixed(0)} seconds</p>
32      {/* rest of component */}
33    </div>
34  );
35}
36
37const MissionControlWithTimer = withTimer(MissionControl);
38
39// Rendering the enhanced component
40function App() {
41  return <MissionControlWithTimer missionName="Apollo" />;
42}

2. Render Props

Render Props is a pattern where a component receives a function that tells it what to render. This allows logic to be shared between components.

1function MouseTracker({ render }) {
2  const [position, setPosition] = useState({ x: 0, y: 0 });
3
4  useEffect(() => {
5    function handleMouseMove(event) {
6      setPosition({
7        x: event.clientX,
8        y: event.clientY
9      });
10    }
11
12    window.addEventListener('mousemove', handleMouseMove);
13
14    return () => {
15      window.removeEventListener('mousemove', handleMouseMove);
16    };
17  }, []);
18
19  return render(position);
20}
21
22// Using render props
23function App() {
24  return (
25    <MouseTracker
26      render={({ x, y }) => (
27        <div className="space-map">
28          <h2>Star Map</h2>
29          <p>Cursor coordinates: ({x}, {y})</p>
30          <div
31            className="space-ship"
32            style={{
33              position: 'absolute',
34              left: x,
35              top: y
36            }}
37          >
38            ▲
39          </div>
40        </div>
41      )}
42    />
43  );
44}

3. Compound Components Pattern

This pattern allows you to create components that work together while maintaining flexibility and code readability.

1function Spaceship({ children }) {
2  const [power, setPower] = useState(0);
3  const [shields, setShields] = useState(false);
4
5  const contextValue = {
6    power,
7    setPower,
8    shields,
9    setShields
10  };
11
12  return (
13    <SpaceshipContext.Provider value={contextValue}>
14      <div className="spaceship">
15        {children}
16      </div>
17    </SpaceshipContext.Provider>
18  );
19}
20
21// Child components
22Spaceship.Engine = function Engine() {
23  const { power, setPower } = useContext(SpaceshipContext);
24
25  return (
26    <div className="engine">
27      <h3>Engine</h3>
28      <p>Power: {power}%</p>
29      <input
30        type="range"
31        min="0"
32        max="100"
33        value={power}
34        onChange={e => setPower(Number(e.target.value))}
35      />
36    </div>
37  );
38};
39
40Spaceship.Shields = function Shields() {
41  const { shields, setShields } = useContext(SpaceshipContext);
42
43  return (
44    <div className="shields">
45      <h3>Shields</h3>
46      <button onClick={() => setShields(!shields)}>
47        {shields ? 'Deactivate' : 'Activate'} shields
48      </button>
49      <p>Status: {shields ? 'Active' : 'Inactive'}</p>
50    </div>
51  );
52};
53
54// Usage
55function App() {
56  return (
57    <Spaceship>
58      <h2>Spaceship Control Panel</h2>
59      <Spaceship.Engine />
60      <Spaceship.Shields />
61    </Spaceship>
62  );
63}

State management patterns

1. Flux / Redux

Redux implements the Flux pattern, which assumes a unidirectional data flow. The application state is stored in a single object (store), and state modifications can only occur by dispatching actions that are processed by reducers.

1// Actions
2const ADD_CREWMEMBER = 'ADD_CREWMEMBER';
3const REMOVE_CREWMEMBER = 'REMOVE_CREWMEMBER';
4
5// Action creators
6function addCrewmember(member) {
7  return {
8    type: ADD_CREWMEMBER,
9    payload: member
10  };
11}
12
13function removeCrewmember(id) {
14  return {
15    type: REMOVE_CREWMEMBER,
16    payload: id
17  };
18}
19
20// Reducer
21function crewReducer(state = [], action) {
22  switch (action.type) {
23    case ADD_CREWMEMBER:
24      return [...state, action.payload];
25    case REMOVE_CREWMEMBER:
26      return state.filter(member => member.id !== action.payload);
27    default:
28      return state;
29  }
30}
31
32// In a component with react-redux
33function CrewManagement() {
34  const crew = useSelector(state => state.crew);
35  const dispatch = useDispatch();
36
37  function handleAddCrewmember() {
38    const newMember = {
39      id: Date.now(),
40      name: 'New crew member',
41      role: 'Cadet'
42    };
43    dispatch(addCrewmember(newMember));
44  }
45
46  return (
47    <div>
48      <h2>Crew Management</h2>
49      <button onClick={handleAddCrewmember}>Add crew member</button>
50      <ul>
51        {crew.map(member => (
52          <li key={member.id}>
53            {member.name} - {member.role}
54            <button onClick={() => dispatch(removeCrewmember(member.id))}>
55              Remove
56            </button>
57          </li>
58        ))}
59      </ul>
60    </div>
61  );
62}

2. Context API

Context API allows passing data through the component tree without the need to pass props at every level.

1// Creating context
2const MissionContext = createContext();
3
4// Provider
5function MissionProvider({ children }) {
6  const [mission, setMission] = useState({
7    name: 'Apollo 11',
8    status: 'In progress',
9    crewMembers: [
10      { id: 1, name: 'Neil Armstrong', role: 'Commander' },
11      { id: 2, name: 'Buzz Aldrin', role: 'Lunar Module Pilot' },
12      { id: 3, name: 'Michael Collins', role: 'Command Module Pilot' }
13    ]
14  });
15
16  function updateMissionStatus(newStatus) {
17    setMission(prev => ({ ...prev, status: newStatus }));
18  }
19
20  function addCrewMember(member) {
21    setMission(prev => ({
22      ...prev,
23      crewMembers: [...prev.crewMembers, member]
24    }));
25  }
26
27  const value = {
28    mission,
29    updateMissionStatus,
30    addCrewMember
31  };
32
33  return (
34    <MissionContext.Provider value={value}>
35      {children}
36    </MissionContext.Provider>
37  );
38}
39
40// Custom hook for easier usage
41function useMission() {
42  const context = useContext(MissionContext);
43  if (!context) {
44    throw new Error('useMission must be used within a MissionProvider');
45  }
46  return context;
47}
48
49// Usage in components
50function MissionDashboard() {
51  const { mission } = useMission();
52
53  return (
54    <div>
55      <h1>Mission: {mission.name}</h1>
56      <p>Status: {mission.status}</p>
57    </div>
58  );
59}
60
61function MissionControl() {
62  const { updateMissionStatus } = useMission();
63
64  return (
65    <div>
66      <h2>Mission Control Center</h2>
67      <button onClick={() => updateMissionStatus('Completed successfully')}>
68        Complete mission
69      </button>
70      <button onClick={() => updateMissionStatus('Aborted')}>
71        Abort mission
72      </button>
73    </div>
74  );
75}
76
77function CrewList() {
78  const { mission, addCrewMember } = useMission();
79
80  return (
81    <div>
82      <h2>Mission Crew</h2>
83      <ul>
84        {mission.crewMembers.map(member => (
85          <li key={member.id}>
86            {member.name} - {member.role}
87          </li>
88        ))}
89      </ul>
90      <button
91        onClick={() =>
92          addCrewMember({
93            id: Date.now(),
94            name: 'New astronaut',
95            role: 'Mission Specialist'
96          })
97        }
98      >
99        Add crew member
100      </button>
101    </div>
102  );
103}
104
105// Putting it all together
106function App() {
107  return (
108    <MissionProvider>
109      <div className="mission-app">
110        <MissionDashboard />
111        <MissionControl />
112        <CrewList />
113      </div>
114    </MissionProvider>
115  );
116}

3. Custom hooks for state

As we saw in the previous module, custom hooks are a powerful tool for encapsulating and reusing state-related logic.

1function useSpaceshipSystems() {
2  const [engines, setEngines] = useState({
3    mainEngine: { power: 0, status: 'offline' },
4    leftThruster: { power: 0, status: 'offline' },
5    rightThruster: { power: 0, status: 'offline' }
6  });
7
8  const [lifeSupportSystem, setLifeSupportSystem] = useState({
9    oxygen: 100,
10    temperature: 21,
11    pressure: 1
12  });
13
14  function startEngine(engineName) {
15    setEngines(prev => ({
16      ...prev,
17      [engineName]: {
18        ...prev[engineName],
19        status: 'online',
20        power: 10
21      }
22    }));
23  }
24
25  function setEnginePower(engineName, power) {
26    if (engines[engineName].status === 'offline') {
27      console.warn(`Cannot set power - engine ${engineName} is offline`);
28      return;
29    }
30
31    setEngines(prev => ({
32      ...prev,
33      [engineName]: {
34        ...prev[engineName],
35        power: Math.max(0, Math.min(100, power))
36      }
37    }));
38  }
39
40  function stopEngine(engineName) {
41    setEngines(prev => ({
42      ...prev,
43      [engineName]: {
44        ...prev[engineName],
45        status: 'offline',
46        power: 0
47      }
48    }));
49  }
50
51  function adjustLifeSupport({ oxygen, temperature, pressure }) {
52    setLifeSupportSystem(prev => ({
53      ...prev,
54      ...(oxygen !== undefined ? { oxygen } : {}),
55      ...(temperature !== undefined ? { temperature } : {}),
56      ...(pressure !== undefined ? { pressure } : {})
57    }));
58  }
59
60  return {
61    engines,
62    lifeSupportSystem,
63    startEngine,
64    setEnginePower,
65    stopEngine,
66    adjustLifeSupport
67  };
68}
69
70// Usage
71function SpaceshipControls() {
72  const {
73    engines,
74    lifeSupportSystem,

76    setEnginePower,
77    stopEngine,

UI component patterns

1. Container / Presentational Pattern

This pattern separates business logic (container) from presentation (presentational component), which increases component reusability and simplifies testing.

1// Container component - handles logic and data fetching
2function PlanetDataContainer({ planetId, children }) {
3  const [planet, setPlanet] = useState(null);
4  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
5  const [error, setError] = useState(null);
6
7  useEffect(() => {
8    setLoading(true);
9
10    fetch(`https://api.planets.com/${planetId}`)
11      .then(response => {
12        if (!response.ok) throw new Error('Failed to fetch planet data');
13        return response.json();
14      })
15      .then(data => {
16        setPlanet(data);
17        setLoading(false);
18      })
19      .catch(err => {
20        setError(err.message);
21        setLoading(false);
22      });
23  }, [planetId]);
24
25  // Call children function with data
26  return children({ planet, loading, error });
27}
28
29// Presentational component - only handles display
30function PlanetInfo({ planet, loading, error }) {
31  if (loading) return <div>Loading planet data...</div>;
32  if (error) return <div>Error: {error}</div>;
33  if (!planet) return null;
34
35  return (
36    <div className="planet-info">
37      <h2>{planet.name}</h2>
38      <div className="planet-details">
39        <p>Type: {planet.type}</p>
40        <p>Diameter: {planet.diameter} km</p>
41        <p>Distance from Sun: {planet.distanceFromSun} million km</p>
42        <p>Orbital period: {planet.orbitalPeriod} days</p>
43        <p>Surface temperature: {planet.surfaceTemperature}°C</p>
44      </div>
45
46      {planet.moons && planet.moons.length > 0 && (
47        <div className="moons">
48          <h3>Moons ({planet.moons.length}):</h3>
49          <ul>
50            {planet.moons.map(moon => (
51              <li key={moon.id}>{moon.name}</li>
52            ))}
53          </ul>
54        </div>
55      )}
56    </div>
57  );
58}
59
60// Usage
61function SolarSystemExplorer() {
62  const [selectedPlanet, setSelectedPlanet] = useState('earth');
63
64  return (
65    <div className="solar-system-explorer">
66      <h1>Solar System Exploration</h1>
67
68      <div className="planet-selector">
69        <label>Select a planet: </label>
70        <select
71          value={selectedPlanet}
72          onChange={e => setSelectedPlanet(e.target.value)}
73        >
74          <option value="mercury">Mercury</option>
75          <option value="venus">Venus</option>
76          <option value="earth">Earth</option>
77          <option value="mars">Mars</option>
78          <option value="jupiter">Jupiter</option>
79          <option value="saturn">Saturn</option>
80          <option value="uranus">Uranus</option>
81          <option value="neptune">Neptune</option>
82        </select>
83      </div>
84
85      <PlanetDataContainer planetId={selectedPlanet}>
86        {({ planet, loading, error }) => (
87          <PlanetInfo planet={planet} loading={loading} error={error} />
88        )}
89      </PlanetDataContainer>
90    </div>
91  );

2. Composition vs Inheritance

React prefers composition over inheritance. This pattern allows creating flexible components through nesting and passing props.

1// Base component - Card
2function Card({ title, children, footer, className }) {
3  return (
4    <div className={`card ${className || ''}`}>
5      {title && <div className="card-header">{title}</div>}
6      <div className="card-body">{children}</div>
7      {footer && <div className="card-footer">{footer}</div>}
8    </div>
9  );
10}
11
12// Specialized components using composition
13function MissionCard({ mission, onComplete }) {
14  return (
15    <Card
16      title={<h3>{mission.name}</h3>}
17      footer={
18        <button onClick={() => onComplete(mission.id)}>
19          Complete mission
20        </button>
21      }
22      className="mission-card"
23    >
24      <p><strong>Objective:</strong> {mission.objective}</p>
25      <p><strong>Status:</strong> {mission.status}</p>
26      <p><strong>Progress:</strong> {mission.progress}%</p>
27      <div className="progress-bar">
28        <div
29          className="progress"
30          style={{ width: `${mission.progress}%` }}
31        />
32      </div>
33    </Card>
34  );
35}
36
37function AstronautCard({ astronaut, onAssign }) {
38  return (
39    <Card
40      title={<h3>{astronaut.name}</h3>}
41      footer={
42        <button onClick={() => onAssign(astronaut.id)}>
43          Assign to mission
44        </button>
45      }
46      className="astronaut-card"
47    >
48      <div className="astronaut-info">
49        <img
50          src={astronaut.avatar}
51          alt={astronaut.name}
52          className="astronaut-avatar"
53        />
54        <div>
55          <p><strong>Rank:</strong> {astronaut.rank}</p>
56          <p><strong>Specialization:</strong> {astronaut.specialization}</p>
57          <p><strong>Missions:</strong> {astronaut.missionCount}</p>
58        </div>
59      </div>
60    </Card>
61  );
62}
63
64// Usage
65function Dashboard() {
66  const missions = [
67    { id: 1, name: 'Mars Exploration', objective: 'Explore the surface', status: 'In progress', progress: 65 },
68    { id: 2, name: 'ISS Space Station', objective: 'Module maintenance', status: 'Planned', progress: 0 }
69  ];
70
71  const astronauts = [
72    { id: 1, name: 'John Smith', rank: 'Captain', specialization: 'Pilot', missionCount: 5, avatar: '/avatars/js.png' },
73    { id: 2, name: 'Anna Johnson', rank: 'Lieutenant', specialization: 'Engineer', missionCount: 3, avatar: '/avatars/aj.png' }
74  ];
75
76  return (
77    <div className="dashboard">
78      <h1>Space Center Control Panel</h1>
79
80      <section className="missions-section">
81        <h2>Active Missions</h2>
82        <div className="missions-grid">
83          {missions.map(mission => (
84            <MissionCard
85              key={mission.id}
86              mission={mission}
87              onComplete={id => console.log(`Completed mission ${id}`)}
88            />
89          ))}
90        </div>
91      </section>
92
93      <section className="astronauts-section">
94        <h2>Available Astronauts</h2>
95        <div className="astronauts-grid">
96          {astronauts.map(astronaut => (
97            <AstronautCard
98              key={astronaut.id}
99              astronaut={astronaut}
100              onAssign={id => console.log(`Assigned astronaut ${id}`)}
101            />
102          ))}
103        </div>
104      </section>
105    </div>
106  );
107}

3. Headless Components Pattern

This pattern separates the behavioral logic of a component from its appearance, allowing maximum styling flexibility.

1// Headless component - contains only logic, no UI
2function useTabControl(initialTab = 0) {
3  const [activeTab, setActiveTab] = useState(initialTab);
4
5  function activateTab(index) {
6    setActiveTab(index);
7  }
8
9  return {
10    activeTab,
11    activateTab
12  };
13}
14
15// Usage with any UI
16function MissionTabs() {
17  const tabs = [
18    { id: 'overview', label: 'Overview' },
19    { id: 'crew', label: 'Crew' },
20    { id: 'timeline', label: 'Timeline' },
21    { id: 'systems', label: 'Systems' }
22  ];
23
24  const { activeTab, activateTab } = useTabControl();
25
26  return (
27    <div className="mission-tabs">
28      <div className="tabs-header">
29        {tabs.map((tab, index) => (
30          <button
31            key={tab.id}
32            className={`tab-button ${activeTab === index ? 'active' : ''}`}
33            onClick={() => activateTab(index)}
34          >
35            {tab.label}
36          </button>
37        ))}
38      </div>
39
40      <div className="tab-content">
41        {activeTab === 0 && (

47
48        {activeTab === 1 && (
49          <div className="crew-tab">

51            <ul>

53              <li>Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin - Lunar Module Pilot</li>
54              <li>Michael Collins - Command Module Pilot</li>
55            </ul>
56          </div>
57        )}
58
59        {activeTab === 2 && (

77                <span className="description">Return to Earth</span>
78              </div>
79            </div>
80          </div>
81        )}
82
83        {activeTab === 3 && (

91      </div>
92    </div>

94}

Optimization patterns

1. Memoization

Memoization helps avoid unnecessary renders by remembering the results of expensive computations.

1// Component memoization
2const MemoizedTelemetryChart = React.memo(function TelemetryChart({ data }) {
3  // Simulation of expensive computations
4  const processedData = useMemo(() => {
5    console.log('Processing telemetry data...');
6
7    // Expensive data processing
8    return data.map(point => ({
9      x: new Date(point.timestamp).toLocaleTimeString(),
10      y: calculateAverage(point.readings),
11      anomaly: detectAnomaly(point.readings)
12    }));
13  }, [data]); // Recalculate only when data changes
14
15  return (
16    <div className="telemetry-chart">
17      <h3>Telemetry Chart</h3>
18      <div className="chart-container">
19        {/* Chart with processed data */}
20        {processedData.map((point, index) => (
21          <div
22            key={index}
23            className={`data-point ${point.anomaly ? 'anomaly' : ''}`}
24            style={{
25              height: `${point.y * 2}px`,
26              backgroundColor: point.anomaly ? 'red' : 'blue'
27            }}
28            title={`${point.x}: ${point.y} ${point.anomaly ? '(anomaly)' : ''}`}
29          />
30        ))}
31      </div>
32    </div>
33  );
34}, (prevProps, nextProps) => {
35  // Custom props comparison logic
36  if (prevProps.data.length !== nextProps.data.length) {
37    return false; // re-render if data size changed
38  }
39
40  // Compare only the last 5 data points
41  const prevLastFive = prevProps.data.slice(-5);
42  const nextLastFive = nextProps.data.slice(-5);
43
44  for (let i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
45    if (!prevLastFive[i] || !nextLastFive[i]) continue;
46
47    if (
48      prevLastFive[i].timestamp !== nextLastFive[i].timestamp ||
49      !arraysEqual(prevLastFive[i].readings, nextLastFive[i].readings)
50    ) {
51      return false; // re-render if data differs
52    }
53  }
54
55  return true; // don't re-render
56});
57
58// Helper functions
59function calculateAverage(readings) {
60  return readings.reduce((sum, val) => sum + val, 0) / readings.length;
61}
62
63function detectAnomaly(readings) {
64  const avg = calculateAverage(readings);
65  const threshold = avg * 1.5;
66  return readings.some(val => val > threshold);
67}
68
69function arraysEqual(a, b) {
70  if (a.length !== b.length) return false;
71  for (let i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
72    if (a[i] !== b[i]) return false;
73  }
74  return true;
75}

2. List virtualization

For large data lists, virtualization allows rendering only the elements that are currently visible on screen.

1// Simple virtualization implementation (in real applications
2// it's worth using libraries like react-window or react-virtualized)
3function VirtualizedAsteroidList({ asteroids, rowHeight = 50, visibleRows = 10 }) {
4  const [scrollTop, setScrollTop] = useState(0);
5  const containerRef = useRef();
6
7  const totalHeight = asteroids.length * rowHeight;
8  const startIndex = Math.floor(scrollTop / rowHeight);
9  const endIndex = Math.min(
10    startIndex + visibleRows + 1,
11    asteroids.length
12  );
13
14  const visibleAsteroids = useMemo(() => {
15    return asteroids.slice(startIndex, endIndex);
16  }, [asteroids, startIndex, endIndex]);
17
18  const handleScroll = useCallback(() => {
19    if (containerRef.current) {
20      setScrollTop(containerRef.current.scrollTop);
21    }
22  }, []);
23
24  return (
25    <div className="asteroids-list">
26      <h2>Asteroid Catalog</h2>
27      <p>Number of asteroids: {asteroids.length}</p>
28
29      <div
30        ref={containerRef}
31        className="virtual-list-container"
32        style={{ height: rowHeight * visibleRows, overflow: 'auto' }}
33        onScroll={handleScroll}
34      >
35        <div
36          className="total-height"
37          style={{ height: totalHeight }}
38        >
39          <div
40            className="visible-items"
41            style={{
42              transform: `translateY(${startIndex * rowHeight}px)`
43            }}
44          >
45            {visibleAsteroids.map(asteroid => (
46              <div
47                key={asteroid.id}
48                className="asteroid-item"
49                style={{ height: rowHeight }}
50              >
51                <span className="name">{asteroid.name}</span>
52                <span className="diameter">Diameter: {asteroid.diameter} km</span>
53                <span className="distance">
54                  Distance: {asteroid.distance} million km
55                </span>
56                <span
57                  className={`hazard-level ${asteroid.hazardLevel}`}

61              </div>
62            ))}
63          </div>
64        </div>
65      </div>
66    </div>
67  );
68}
69
70function formatHazardLevel(level) {
71  switch (level) {
72    case 'high': return 'High threat';
73    case 'medium': return 'Medium threat';
74    case 'low': return 'Low threat';
75    default: return 'No threat';
76  }
77}
