Three best practices for building React REST SDKs
Blog post from Clerk
The text highlights key considerations and strategies for designing React hooks for API access, emphasizing the importance of not using secret keys in the browser and instead utilizing session tokens or JWTs for user-based access. It suggests transforming GET methods into hooks to simplify asynchronous operations in React components, thus avoiding the verbosity and complexity of using Promises with useEffect and useState. The discussion extends to handling mutations with hooks, introducing two strategies: eager refresh, which is more performant but challenging to configure, and sequential refresh, which is less efficient but more straightforward, particularly when dealing with side effects. The goal is to ensure hooks automatically react to changes, aligning with React's principles, and to choose the appropriate refresh strategy based on performance needs and configuration complexity.
