Should I always use React.PureComponent instead of React.Component?

Question

React

Not so long ago, React.PureComponent appeared in react , which differs in that it does a shallow comparison of changes itself. Should we ditch React.Component for good? And can there be bugs if we replace React.Component with React.PureComponent throughout the project?

Answer 1

1. If you are satisfied with a superficial check, then it is worth it.
2. Yes, if you pass not immutable, but mutable data to the component, because of which you need to rebuild the dom, then the project will be broken.
