React interviews are not about memorizing hooks or APIs — they’re about how you think.
In this video, we break down React interview questions that developers STILL get wrong, even after years of experience. These are not trick questions — they’re fundamentals that are often misunderstood.
You’ll learn:
Why React components re-render (and when they don’t)
The real difference between state and props
Why useEffect is NOT a lifecycle replacement
Why using index as a key causes subtle bugs
Controlled vs uncontrolled components (real tradeoffs)
When NOT to use Context API
Why setState is async and how React batches updates
When useMemo and useCallback actually make sense
This video is perfect if you’re:

Tired of surface-level explanations
Wanting to think like a senior frontend engineer
