Fixes two related cases of mutation of potentially frozen values.
The first is method calls on frozen values. Previously, we modeled unknown function calls as potentially aliasing their receiver+args into the return value. If the receiver or argument were known to be frozen, then we would downgrade the `Alias` effect into an `ImmutableCapture`. However, within a function expression it's possible to call a function using a frozen value as an argument (that gets `Alias`-ed into the return) but where we don't have the context locally to know that the value is frozen.
This results in cases like this:
```js
const frozen = useContext(...);
useEffect(() => {
frozen.method().property = true;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ cannot mutate frozen value
}, [...]);
```
Within the function we would infer:
```
t0 = MethodCall ...
Create t0 = mutable
Alias t0 <- frozen
t1 = PropertyStore ...
Mutate t0
```
And then transitively infer the function expression as having a `Mutate 'frozen'` effect, which when evaluated against the outer context (`frozen` is frozen) is an error.
The fix is to model unknown function calls as _maybe_ aliasing their receiver/args in the return, and then considering mutations of a maybe-aliased value to only be a conditional mutation of the source:
```
t0 = MethodCall ...
Create t0 = mutable
MaybeAlias t0 <- frozen // maybe alias now
t1 = PropertyStore ...
Mutate t0
```
Then, the `Mutate t0` turns into a `MutateConditional 'frozen'`, which just gets ignored when we process the outer context.
The second, related fix is for known mutation of phis that may be a frozen value. The previous inference model correctly recorded these as errors, the new model does not. We now correctly report a validation error for this case in the new model.
React · 
React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
- Declarative: React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Design simple views for each state in your application, and React will efficiently update and render just the right components when your data changes. Declarative views make your code more predictable, simpler to understand, and easier to debug.
- Component-Based: Build encapsulated components that manage their own state, then compose them to make complex UIs. Since component logic is written in JavaScript instead of templates, you can easily pass rich data through your app and keep the state out of the DOM.
- Learn Once, Write Anywhere: We don't make assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, so you can develop new features in React without rewriting existing code. React can also render on the server using Node and power mobile apps using React Native.

Installation
React has been designed for gradual adoption from the start, and you can use as little or as much React as you need:
- Use Quick Start to get a taste of React.
- Add React to an Existing Project to use as little or as much React as you need.
- Create a New React App if you're looking for a powerful JavaScript toolchain.
Documentation
You can find the React documentation on the website.
Check out the Getting Started page for a quick overview.
The documentation is divided into several sections:
- Quick Start
- Tutorial
- Thinking in React
- Installation
- Describing the UI
- Adding Interactivity
- Managing State
- Advanced Guides
- API Reference
- Where to Get Support
- Contributing Guide

Examples
We have several examples on the website. Here is the first one to get you started:
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
function HelloMessage({ name }) {
return <div>Hello {name}</div>;
}
const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<HelloMessage name="Taylor" />);
This example will render "Hello Taylor" into a container on the page.
You'll notice that we used an HTML-like syntax; we call it JSX. JSX is not required to use React, but it makes code more readable, and writing it feels like writing HTML.
