How does the performance of useContext compare to other state management solutions?

How does the performance of useContext compare to other state management solutions?

The useContext hook is generally more performant than prop drilling but can be less efficient than libraries like Redux for large applications.

What are the scenarios where useContext is preferred?

useContext is preferred in smaller applications or when you need to share state across a few components without the overhead of a full state management library.

Are there any performance pitfalls I should be aware of?

Yes, excessive re-renders can occur if the context value changes frequently. It's important to memoize values to mitigate this.

Can you give an example of how to implement useContext?

Sure! You can create a context using const MyContext = React.createContext(); and then use useContext(MyContext) in your components.
