Learn how to leverage React's composition patterns to build scalable, maintainable codebases in this 22-minute conference talk from React Universe Conf 2025. Discover why relying on boolean props like `isEditing` and `shouldRenderButton` creates unmaintainable "prop hell" and explore how real-world applications like Slack's composer become unwieldy when built with conditional rendering approaches. Master compositional techniques that replace monolithic components with small, flexible building blocks, understand effective state management strategies for both local ephemeral state and global synchronized state across devices, and see how composition patterns make codebases more AI-friendly for enhanced developer productivity when pair programming with AI tools.
