What happens if an error boundary itself throws an error?

What happens if an error boundary itself throws an error?

If an error boundary throws an error, it won't catch its own error. This can lead to a crash of the entire application.

So, how can I prevent that from happening?

You can ensure that your error boundaries are robust by using try-catch blocks within the render method or lifecycle methods.

Are there best practices for implementing error boundaries?

Yes, some best practices include logging errors, providing fallback UI, and ensuring that error boundaries are placed strategically in your component tree.

Can I use error boundaries with functional components?

Yes, you can use error boundaries with functional components by wrapping them in a class component that implements the error boundary methods.
