What is the difference between reselect and memoization?

What is the difference between reselect and memoization?

Reselect is a library for creating memoized selectors in Redux, while memoization is a general programming technique to cache results.

Can you explain how reselect works in a Redux application?

Sure! Reselect allows you to create selectors that can compute derived state, and it only recalculates when the input state changes.

When should I use memoization in my application?

Use memoization when you have expensive calculations that don't need to be repeated with the same inputs, improving performance.

Are there any downsides to using reselect?

One downside is that it adds complexity to your codebase, and if not used properly, it can lead to unnecessary re-renders.
