Discover how React Tracked optimizes render performance in web apps. Build a to-do app using two methods, and gain skills to create advanced applications efficiently.

React Tracked is a small library for global state with React Hooks and
React Context. It allows you to develop a small web app with global state
without a bigger library like Redux.

In this course, you will create a to-do app. But before diving into
creating an application, you’ll first learn how React Tracked can solve
common performance issues around render optimization. Once you learn how to
work with this library, you’ll then build a to-do app through two different
methods.

By the end of this course, you will be ready to build more advanced
applications without having to do unnecessary re-rendering. You’ll also
have a nice piece to showcase in your portfolio.

React Tracked: Creating Web Apps with Global State

# NewTodo

Based on the `useAddTodo` hook, we create a NewTodo component.

```javascript
// ./components/NewTodo.js

import React, { useState } from 'react';

import { useAddTodo } from '../hooks/useAddTodo';
import { useFlasher } from '../utils';

const NewTodo = () => {
  const addTodo = useAddTodo();
  const [text, setText] = useState('');
  return (
    <li ref={useFlasher()}>
      <input
        value={text}
        placeholder="Enter title..."
        onChange={e => setText(e.target.value)}
      />
      <button
        onClick={() => {
          addTodo(text);
          setText('');
        }}
      >
        Add
      </button>
    </li>
  );
};

export default React.memo(NewTodo);
```

# Next

In the next lesson, we will finally create a root component `App`.

In this lesson, we create a component to add a new ToDo item.
