Shared Loading State Race

shared-loading-boolean-race

A recurring UI failure where overlapping async calls share a single loading boolean, so one call’s finally ends the spinner early and triggers unmount/remount that retriggers fetch, producing render/fetch loops or permanent spinners.

MATCHESSolution

you can use Zustand getters and optimistic update — multiple or rapid clicks could actually cause the updates to be executed but out of order. Tension: no optimistic update so u see that delay (lag) you said about.

MATCHESSolution

You can handle the data loading in your store itself like below — the local isLoading variable is not suitable for storing the data loading state. Tension: Since your API call is happening in the store.

MATCHESSolution

Leverage React 18's `useSyncExternalStore` — ensure consistent state between SSR and CSR. Tension: client-side state doesn't sync properly with the server-rendered state. Outcome: to ensure consistent state between SSR and CSR.

MATCHESSolution

Guard `localStorage` access with a client-only check (e.g., `typeof window !== 'undefined'` / run only in a client component) and initialize the Zustand store once on mount; optionally delay rendering of cart UI until initialization completes to avoid showing `0` temporarily.

MATCHESSolution

Initialize auth state to an indeterminate value (e.g., `undefined`) and render/loading or avoid redirect until `fetchCurrentUser` completes. After the async auth check, set `user` to either a valid user or null so the route guard redirects only when authentication is confirmed.

MATCHESSolution

Track loading per request (e.g., per action or with a counter) instead of one global boolean, or guard/remain mounted so that remounting does not retrigger the fetch. E.g., use separate `loading` flags or increment/decrement an in-flight counter and render spinner only when the counter is > 0.

MATCHESSolution

const usePermissionsStoreAsync = hook(usePermissionsStore, /*suspense*/false); — const YourComponent = () => {. Tension: if (userPermissions.isLoading) { return Loading... ; } if (userPermissions.error) { return An error occurred ; }. Outcome: Try Leo Query. It handle's async data for Zustand.

MATCHESSolution

Load the async user data with a Suspense-compatible async pattern (e.g., using `leo-query`’s `query`/`subscribe`) so the component waits until `currentUser` is available before rendering.

MATCHESSolution

Create/move the React.lazy import initialization so it isn’t executed on every render (e.g., place the lazy call in the same component as Suspense) to ensure the import is stable and doesn’t trigger repeated re-renders.

MATCHESSolution

Verify the Drawer is actually mounted when the state changes by logging `showCustomizationDrawer` and the conditional values, and ensure the Drawer component is rendered (or that the state is lifted/shared to the same scope) regardless of those conditions.

MATCHESSolution

handle a scenario when the code is fine but backend went offline — prefetching data with usePrefetchQuery. Tension: prefetch works.

MATCHESSolution

Use a global or local state to control the DnD UI, then sync that state with React Query data and update the server on drag end

MATCHESSolution

make sure that the form component is only rendered after data is ready — Decouple the data fetching component from the form component. Tension: background refetches will not be reflected. Outcome: if your cache already has stale data when `App` mounts, you'll get that data in your state.

MATCHESSolution

I try putting a setName(data.name) inside a useEffect that runs only when "isLoading" changes, and it works — edit/change the "name" retrieved by the query. Tension: I would think there is a better and more clean way to do it. Outcome: use a `useEffect` hook to "synchronize" a React state to an external source.

MATCHESSolution

if(isLoading) return Loading... if(isError || !data) return Something went wrong — const Component = () => {. Tension: data will now always be defined. Outcome: return ...

MATCHESSolution

rendering the rows as a non complex component like a spinner or something — my laggy components were loading in as i scrolled etc. Tension: excessive blanking of the page. Outcome: using useEffect to determine if it is fully rendered, you can resolve most of the major blanking issues.

MATCHESSolution

Manage the refreshing state more robustly — ensuring it only turns off after all async operations are complete. Tension: remove the arbitrary timeout. Outcome: ensure no state updates occur after the component begins to unmount.

MATCHESSolution

myEndpoint must return a Promise — Please note, that above method is synchronous just to check if that makes difference, but it is not. Tension: my template is keep displaying "Loading..".

MATCHESSolution

Wrap updates that suspend with startTransition

MATCHESSolution

Lift mutation state to a shared owner (same parent) or to shared global/local state (React Context/Redux or local state in a shared parent), and update that state inside `onSuccess`/`onError`/`onSettled` (or `isPending`) callbacks; alternatively, read mutation status via the same `useMutation` instance passed/shared with the other component.

MATCHESSolution

Worked around the issue by passing scrollYProgress to the LiIcon component instead of passing the ref — const { scrollYProgress } = useScroll({ target: ref, offset: ['center end', 'center center'], });. Tension: the circles seem to be using all the same ref. Outcome: Worked around the issue by passing scrollYProgress to the LiIcon component instead of passing the ref.

MATCHESSolution

single worker running async loop. Outcome: So you have a single worker running async loop and you block that loop.

MATCHESSolution

Create a lifespan-managed shared state (e.g., instantiate a state manager/model in FastAPI lifespan) and store the loaded model in that state so request handlers can access it via Request/app state or a dependency that reads from lifespan.

MATCHESSolution

No ref to prevent redundant state updates — `setState` inside an observer callback that runs on every scroll event. Tension: React still processes the `setState` call even if the value is the same. Outcome: const lastIdRef = useRef(null);.

MATCHESSolution

Persist and rehydrate the complete store state with the exact `RootState` structure (or adjust the `preloadedState` typing/shape to match what you load). Ensure `loadState` returns the full expected state object rather than only `tasks`.

MATCHESSolution

Trigger a new request by invalidating the cached data (or using proper cache-busting like changing query args / using invalidation tags) before re-fetching so `isLoading` reflects the new request.

MATCHESSolution

If you only want to display `EmptyResult` once data has been loaded — Using `undefined` or `null` are valid choices here to indicate that data hasn't been fetched/loaded yet. Tension: differentiate the states and loading conditions. Outcome: Using `undefined` or `null` are valid choices here.

MATCHESSolution

An async function was passed to useActionState.

MATCHESSolution

I suggest a minor refactor to add some local React state to hold this value and a `useEffect` hook — implementing a form with login logout functionality. Tension: This condition will always return true.

MATCHESSolution

Load and parse the localStorage drawing inside a lazy `useState` initializer so `initialData` is correct on first render, and ensure parsing is guarded (e.g., fallback to `[]` or handle parse errors) before passing data to Excalidraw.
