React render function organization

render-logic.js

// See https://blog.isquaredsoftware.com/presentations/react-redux-ts-intro-2020-12/#/36 for slides
// My basic render function structure:
function RenderLogicExample({
  someBoolean, // 1) Destructure values from `props` object
  someList,
}) {
  // 2) Declare state values
  const [a, setA] = useState(0);
  const [b, setB] = useState(0);

  // 3) Render any dependent items into temporary variables,
  //    such as conditional components or lists
  const conditionalComponent = someBoolean ? (
    <SomeConditionalComponent />
  ) : null;
      
  const listItems = someList.map(item => (
    <ListItem key={item.id} item={item} />
  ));

  // 4) Use a single JSX structure filled with content
  return (
    <div>
      <div>
        A: {a}, B: {b}
      </div>
      {conditionalComponent}
      {listItems}
    </div>
  );
}

Nice.
minor remark, I would add index to the listitem

Defining a named function or variable in the render function is no different to just running the map directly in the render function. You are still declaring a new function every time render fires. Declaring it on the class, or outside of the functional component will use an existing reference to the function and improve performance in some cases, although not required for faster prototyping until an optimization step (if at all needed).

Adding index to listitem is an anti-pattern that will create mysterious problems down the track (unless you are familiar with these problems, in which case you already know to protect against it). Instead, the key should be set to a consistent value derived from the mapped items (ID, or a concatenated string of one/two string fields that appear in the object guaranteed to be stable/unique in this set of data).

so no render props ?

awesome, as a self-taught developer I'm always hesitating on simple things that I already know and do. Just reading codes from pros make me more confident about my thoughts and the style of the code I write, so much appreciated 💯
