Hello to all, if I understand it good until now, is good practice to use stateless functional components when is it possible - and get the data there only via 'props'.
But now, after this video seems so, that is better to use PureComponent (without state) instead of functional components....becauase there is automatic control if the component should update or not.....I am right? If PureComponent not helps, I should use Component with own implementation of 'shouldComponentUpdate()'
What is the workflow then of developing a real React-application, should I always check if the component is re-rendered also when it should not be? Cannot it be very workly when the project grows in time?
I only want to ask about standards....
Thanks for any hints
