@joshistoast@blessedcoolant I’m trying to place this on the release roadmap. What is the level of work needed to test this thoroughly and bring it out of the draft stage. I’ve currently slated it for v6.13.x, with an eta in 4-6 weeks; does that sound right? Could go in sooner if feasible.

It is a much larger endeavor. React 19 introduced the React Compiler that auto memoizes to improve performance. It is optional but if we are upgrading we might as well make use of it.

So that brings us to the fact that we use memoization manually almost across every single component in the app. We will have to refactor them all to permit the React Compiler to take over instead. This could introduce a ton of bugs that will need fixing. Not to mention, we will have to check the compatibility of our other dependencies and tools.

I'd rather this be one slowly and carefully. There's no urgent rush for us to upgrade just yet but we should do it long term. It makes our lives much easier. On the list. But let's keep it under "whenever it feels good".
