An interactive version of React Lifecycle Methods diagram tweeted by Dan Abramov. Built with React, obviously. I did my best to make the diagram fully accessible, both for keyboard navigation and screen readers for visually impaired people.

QUESTION
I'm currently having a problem on my functional components that does not update when it receives new props. I want to clarify my mental model and after looking at the cheat sheet from react website, new props should update the component if it is saved in the state right?
Consider the following code:

What are the guarantees on React lifecycle order across separate components, and are they clearly documented anywhere?
For example, given I have:

Answered 2019-Sep-30 at 14:54Sometimes I had a difficult time understanding the fundamental differences between the componentWillMount() and componentDidMount() methods. I kept getting frustrated when one would work, yet I didn’t understand how or why.
componentWillMount() One big snag that I didn’t realize until an online study group session is that componentWillMount() was deprecated in 2018. While you can continue to use it (until React 17.0), it isn’t best practice because it is not safe for async rendering. If you do choose to continue to use it, you should use UNSAFE_componentWillMount().
The Reason Using a fetch call within componentWillMount() causes the component to render with empty data at first, because componentWillMount() will NOT return before the first render of the component.
Due to the fact that JavaScript events are async, when you make an API call, the browser continues to do other work while the call is still in motion. With React, while a component is rendering it doesn’t wait for componentWillMount() to finish, so the component continues to render.
With all that being said, you would need to to create a component that still looks presentable without the data that you are hoping to display. There is no way (not even a timer) to stop the component from rendering until the data is present.
When I was building my project, I didn’t know about the deprecation of componentWillMount() and I didn’t understand why I kept getting the “cannot read property ‘map’ of undefined” error. I was so confused because I had an array and it should be getting populated by data, but it wasn’t.
Turns out this makes complete and total sense since the component is rendered with empty data at first, so the array was empty and couldn’t be iterated over. It was only at this point that I learned that it is best practice to use componentDidMount().
componentDidMount() The best place to make calls to fetch data is within componentDidMount(). componentDidMount() is only called once, on the client, compared to componentWillMount() which is called twice, once to the server and once on the client. It is called after the initial render when the client received data from the server and before the data is displayed in the browser. Due to the fact that the data won’t be loaded until after the initial render, the developer NEEDS to set up the components initial state properly.
On a side note, with componentDidMount() you can use a timer and have the data updated every so often without the user ever having to refresh the page. I’d say that is a really neat feature that can be useful in projects/websites.
QUESTION
I have an object that I wish to install into the window.app
variable as soon as possible, so that nested components can reference it as they mount. Now, outside of React, I would normally do this on the first line in window.onload()
and I am wondering where the earliest possible spot is when using React which I am now learning.
I was using the App's componentDidMount
method but the nested components fired their own componentDidMount
first; App's componentDidMount
seems to be last. Then I found this helpful lifecycle chart and I am now using App's constructor
which is console logging before the nested components, so that's an improvement.
Is App's constructor
the earliest spot we can write code?

method that bootstraps the react application.
