https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/32529 added a dynamic flag for
this, but that breaks tests since the flags are not defined everywhere.
However, this is a static value and the flag is only for supporting
existing tests. So we can override it in the test config, and make it
static at built time instead.
*This API is experimental and subject to change or removal.*
This PR is an alternative to
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/32421 based on feedback:
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/32421#pullrequestreview-2625382015
. The difference here is that we traverse from the Fragment's fiber at
operation time instead of keeping a set of children on the
`FragmentInstance`. We still need to handle newly added or removed child
nodes to apply event listeners and observers, so we treat those updates
as effects.
**Fragment Refs**
This PR extends React's Fragment component to accept a `ref` prop. The
Fragment's ref will attach to a custom host instance, which will provide
an Element-like API for working with the Fragment's host parent and host
children.
Here I've implemented `addEventListener`, `removeEventListener`, and
`focus` to get started but we'll be iterating on this by adding
additional APIs in future PRs. This sets up the mechanism to attach refs
and perform operations on children. The FragmentInstance is implemented
in `react-dom` here but is planned for Fabric as well.
The API works by targeting the first level of host children and proxying
Element-like APIs to allow developers to manage groups of elements or
elements that cannot be easily accessed such as from a third-party
library or deep in a tree of Functional Component wrappers.
```javascript
import {Fragment, useRef} from 'react';
const fragmentRef = useRef(null);
<Fragment ref={fragmentRef}>
<div id="A" />
<Wrapper>
<div id="B">
<div id="C" />
</div>
</Wrapper>
<div id="D" />
</Fragment>
```
In this case, calling `fragmentRef.current.addEventListener()` would
apply an event listener to `A`, `B`, and `D`. `C` is skipped because it
is nested under the first level of Host Component. If another Host
Component was appended as a sibling to `A`, `B`, or `D`, the event
listener would be applied to that element as well and any other APIs
would also affect the newly added child.
This is an implementation of the basic feature as a starting point for
feedback and further iteration.
## Summary
In React Native, public instances and internal host nodes are not
represented by the same object (ReactNativeElement & shadow nodes vs.
just DOM elements), and the only one that's required for rendering is
the shadow node. Public instances are generally only necessary when
accessed via refs or events, and that usually happens for a small amount
of components in the tree.
This implements an optimization to create the public instance on demand,
instead of eagerly creating it when creating the host node. We expect
this to improve performance by reducing the logic we do per node and the
number of object allocations.
## How did you test this change?
Manually synced the changes to React Native and run Fantom tests and
benchmarks, with the flag enabled and disabled. All tests pass in both
cases, and benchmarks show a slight but consistent performance
improvement.
## Summary
`fastAddProperties` has shown some perf benefits when used for creating
props payload for new components. In this PR we'll try to use it for
diffing props for existing components.
It would be good enough if it simply doesn't regress perf. We'll be able
to delete the old `addProperties`, and make `fastAddProperties` the
default behaviour.
## How did you test this change?
```
yarn lint
yarn flow native
yarn test packages/react-native-renderer -r=xplat --variant=false
yarn test packages/react-native-renderer -r=xplat --variant=true
```
Insertion effects do not unmount when a subtree is removed while
offscreen.
Current behavior for an insertion effect is if the component goes
- *visible -> removed:* calls insertion effect cleanup
- *visible -> offscreen -> removed:* insertion effect cleanup is never
called
This makes it so we always call insertion effect cleanup when removing
the component.

Concurrent by default has been unshipped! Let's clean it up.
Here we remove `forceConcurrentByDefaultForTesting`, which allows us to
run tests against both concurrent strategies. In the next PR, we'll
remove the actual concurrent by default code path.
While the goal is to remove legacy context completely, I think we can
already land the removal of legacy context for function components. I
didn't even know this feature existed until reading the code recently.
The win is just a couple of property lookups on function renders, but it
trims down the API already as the full removal will likely still take a
bit more time.
www: Starting with enabled test renderer and a feature flag for
production rollout.
RN: Not enabled, will follow up on this.
Object literals should be faster at least on React Native with Hermes as
the JS engine.
It might also be interesting to confirm the old comments in this file
from years ago are even still valid. Creating an object from a literal
should be a simpler operation.
It's a bit unfortunate that this introduces a bunch of copied code, but
since we rearely update the fields on fibers, this seems like an okay
tradeoff for a hot code path. An alternative would be some sort of macro
system, but that doesn't seem worth the extra complexity.
Updates Suspensey instances and resources to preload even during urgent
updates and to potentially suspend.
The current implementation is unchanged for transitions but for sync
updates if there is a suspense boundary above the resource/instance it
will be rendered in fallback mode instead.
Note: This behavior is not what we want for images once we make them
suspense enabled. We will need to have forked behavior here to
distinguish between stylesheets which should never commit when not
loaded and images which should commit after a small delay
Following #28768, add a path to testing Fast JSX on www.
We want to measure the impact of Fast JSX and enable a path to testing
before string refs are completely removed in www (which is a work in
progress).
Without `disableStringRefs`, we need to copy any object with a `ref` key
so we can pass it through `coerceStringRef()` and copy it into the
object. This de-opt path is what is gated behind
`enableFastJSXWithStringRefs`.
The additional checks should have no perf impact in OSS as the flags
remain true there and the build output is not changed. For www, I've
benchmarked the addition of the boolean checks with values cached at
module scope. There is no significant change observed from our
benchmarks and any latency will apply to test and control branches
evenly. This added experiment complexity is temporary. We should be able
to clean it up, along with the flag checks for `enableRefAsProp` and
`disableStringRefs` shortly.
## Summary
This PR introduces a faster version of the `addProperties` function.
This new function is basically the `diffProperties` with `prevProps` set
to `null`, propagated constants, and all the unreachable code paths
collapsed.
## How did you test this change?
I've tested this change with [the benchmark
app](https://github.com/react-native-community/RNNewArchitectureApp/tree/new-architecture-benchmarks)
and got ~4.4% improvement in the view creation time.
