React compiler notes
Starting from scratch
What is it?
- It is a build-time only tool
- Only works with plain JS and understands the rules of React

What does it do?
It understands the code at deep level through its understandings or plain JS and rules of React. Thios allows it to add automatizations to the code, such as memoization of components without explicitley setting it, as long as the code does not break the rules (following the rules of react)
