React 18 | Tutorial Suspense | Data Fetching | SWR
Beto, April 8, 2022 · 2,184 views
Half the code in a typical React component is loading and error boilerplate. React 18's Suspense plus SWR deletes most of it: components suspend while data loads, a fallback shows automatically, and you just render the result. I set it up from scratch in the video, starting with a fresh Vite project and the React 18 upgrade.
This is for React devs who want cleaner components and a real understanding of how Suspense changes data fetching.
What's inside
- Create a React project with Vite and upgrade it to React 18
- Swap for the new API
- Write one fetcher function and reuse it across all SWR hooks
- Enable in the provider
- Show fallback UI automatically while data loads
- Strip manual loading and error checks out of your components
