# Frontend Development Patterns
Modern frontend patterns for React, Next.js, and performant user interfaces.
Component Patterns
Composition Over Inheritance
```typescript
// ✅ GOOD: Component composition
interface CardProps {
children: React.ReactNode
variant?: 'default' | 'outlined'
}
export function Card({ children, variant = 'default' }: CardProps) {
return <div className={`card card-${variant}`}>{children}</div>
}
export function CardHeader({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
return <div className="card-header">{children}</div>
}
export function CardBody({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
return <div className="card-body">{children}</div>
}
// Usage
<Card>
<CardHeader>Title</CardHeader>
<CardBody>Content</CardBody>
</Card>
```
Compound Components
```typescript
interface TabsContextValue {
activeTab: string
setActiveTab: (tab: string) => void
}
const TabsContext = createContext<TabsContextValue | undefined>(undefined)
export function Tabs({ children, defaultTab }: {
children: React.ReactNode
defaultTab: string
}) {
const [activeTab, setActiveTab] = useState(defaultTab)
return (
<TabsContext.Provider value={{ activeTab, setActiveTab }}>
{children}
</TabsContext.Provider>
)
}
export function TabList({ children }: { children: React.ReactNode }) {
return <div className="tab-list">{children}</div>
}
export function Tab({ id, children }: { id: string, children: React.ReactNode }) {
const context = useContext(TabsContext)
if (!context) throw new Error('Tab must be used within Tabs')
return (
<button
className={context.activeTab === id ? 'active' : ''}
onClick={() => context.setActiveTab(id)}
>
{children}
</button>
)
}
// Usage
<Tabs defaultTab="overview">
<TabList>
<Tab id="overview">Overview</Tab>
<Tab id="details">Details</Tab>
</TabList>
</Tabs>
```
Render Props Pattern
```typescript
interface DataLoaderProps<T> {
url: string
children: (data: T | null, loading: boolean, error: Error | null) => React.ReactNode
}
export function DataLoader<T>({ url, children }: DataLoaderProps<T>) {
const [data, setData] = useState<T | null>(null)
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true)
const [error, setError] = useState<Error | null>(null)
useEffect(() => {
fetch(url)
.then(res => res.json())
.then(setData)
.catch(setError)
.finally(() => setLoading(false))
}, [url])
return <>{children(data, loading, error)}</>
}
// Usage
<DataLoader<Market[]> url="/api/markets">
{(markets, loading, error) => {
if (loading) return <Spinner />
if (error) return <Error error={error} />
return <MarketList markets={markets!} />
}}
</DataLoader>
```
Custom Hooks Patterns
State Management Hook
```typescript
export function useToggle(initialValue = false): [boolean, () => void] {
const [value, setValue] = useState(initialValue)
const toggle = useCallback(() => {
setValue(v => !v)
}, [])
return [value, toggle]
}
// Usage
const [isOpen, toggleOpen] = useToggle()
```
Async Data Fetching Hook
```typescript
interface UseQueryOptions<T> {
onSuccess?: (data: T) => void
onError?: (error: Error) => void
enabled?: boolean
}
export function useQuery<T>(
key: string,
fetcher: () => Promise<T>,
options?: UseQueryOptions<T>
) {
const [data, setData] = useState<T | null>(null)
const [error, setError] = useState<Error | null>(null)
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false)
const refetch = useCallback(async () => {
setLoading(true)
setError(null)
try {
const result = await fetcher()
setData(result)
options?.onSuccess?.(result)
} catch (err) {
const error = err as Error
setError(error)
options?.onError?.(error)
} finally {
setLoading(false)
}
}, [fetcher, options])
useEffect(() => {
if (options?.enabled !== false) {
refetch()
}
