How to paginate data in React

Implementing pagination is essential for displaying large datasets efficiently in React applications without overwhelming the user interface. As the creator of CoreUI with over 11 years of React development experience since 2014, I’ve built pagination into countless data tables and lists. The most effective solution is to track the current page in state and slice the data array to show only the relevant items. This approach is simple, performant, and provides full control over the pagination logic.

How to reset form in React

Resetting forms after submission or on user action is a common requirement in React applications for better user experience. As the creator of CoreUI with over 11 years of React experience since 2014, I’ve implemented form reset functionality in hundreds of production forms. The most effective solution is to reset your state values back to their initial state or use a ref with the native form reset method. This approach ensures all form fields return to their default values cleanly.

How to reset Pinia state

Resetting Pinia state is essential for logout functionality, form resets, and cleaning up application data when switching between user sessions or contexts. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive Vue development experience since 2014, I’ve implemented state resets in numerous dashboard applications for user logout and data cleanup scenarios. The most straightforward approach uses Pinia’s built-in $reset() method to restore store state to its initial values. This method ensures complete state cleanup while maintaining store reactivity and subscriptions.

How to persist Pinia state

Persisting Pinia state ensures your Vue 3 application maintains user data across browser sessions, improving user experience and reducing data loss. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive Vue development experience since 2014, I’ve implemented state persistence in numerous dashboard applications for user preferences and application settings. The most effective approach uses the pinia-plugin-persistedstate plugin for automatic state synchronization with localStorage. This solution provides seamless persistence without manual store management while supporting selective state persistence.

How to persist state with cookies in React

Persisting state with cookies is ideal when you need server-side access to client data or cross-domain sharing capabilities that localStorage cannot provide. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive React experience since 2014, I’ve used cookie-based persistence for authentication tokens, user preferences, and SSR-compatible state management. The most practical approach combines React hooks with the js-cookie library for reliable cookie manipulation. This method ensures data persistence while providing server-side accessibility for universal applications.

How to persist state with sessionStorage in React

Using sessionStorage for state persistence is ideal when you need temporary data storage that clears when the browser tab closes. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive React development experience since 2014, I’ve used sessionStorage for form data, wizard steps, and temporary user preferences. The implementation is nearly identical to localStorage but provides session-scoped persistence instead of permanent storage. This approach is perfect for sensitive data or temporary application state that shouldn’t persist indefinitely.

How to persist state with localStorage in React

Persisting component state across browser sessions enhances user experience by maintaining application state even after page refreshes or browser restarts. As the creator of CoreUI with extensive React experience since 2014, I’ve implemented state persistence in numerous production applications. The most effective approach combines useState with useEffect hooks to automatically save and restore state from localStorage. This pattern ensures data consistency while maintaining React’s declarative nature.

How to define mutations in Vuex

Vuex mutations are the only way to change store state in Vue applications, providing predictable state updates with proper debugging and time-travel capabilities. As the creator of CoreUI with over 25 years of development experience, I use mutations extensively for reliable state management across enterprise applications. The most effective approach is defining mutations as synchronous functions that receive state and payload parameters for direct state modification. This ensures traceable, debuggable state changes that work seamlessly with Vue DevTools and maintain application predictability.

How to define state in Vuex

Defining proper state structure in Vuex is fundamental for building scalable Vue applications with predictable data flow and optimal reactivity. As the creator of CoreUI with over 25 years of development experience, I’ve structured state for countless enterprise applications using clear, normalized patterns. The most effective approach is defining state as a function that returns an object with properly typed initial values. This ensures consistent data structure and prevents issues with state mutations and component reactivity.

How to use controlled components in React

Using controlled components in React provides complete control over form state, enabling validation, dynamic behavior, and predictable data flow. With over 25 years of experience in software development and as the creator of CoreUI, I’ve implemented controlled components extensively in enterprise forms and complex user interfaces. From my expertise, the most reliable approach is managing form values in React state and using onChange handlers to update state on user input. This pattern ensures React is the single source of truth for form data, enabling powerful features like real-time validation and conditional rendering.
