Preserve React 18 concurrent patterns and adopt React 19 APIs (useTransition, useDeferredValue, Suspense, use(), useOptimistic, Actions) during migration.
npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill react19-concurrent-patterns
React 19 introduced new APIs that complement the migration work. This skill covers two concerns:
These patterns exist in React 18 codebases and must not be accidentally removed or broken:
If the R18 orchestra already ran, ReactDOM.render → createRoot is done. Verify it's correct:
useTransition from React 18 works identically in React 19. Do not touch these patterns during migration:
These are worth adopting in a post-migration cleanup sprint. Do not introduce these DURING the migration stabilize first.
For full patterns on each new API, read:
references/react19-use.md the use() hook for promises and contextreferences/react19-actions.md Actions, useActionState, useFormStatus, useOptimisticreferences/react19-suspense.md Suspense for data fetching (the new pattern)During the React 19 migration itself, these concurrent-mode patterns must be left completely untouched:
If the migrator touched any of these files, review the changes the migration should only have modified React API surface (forwardRef, defaultProps, etc.), never concurrent mode logic.
// React 18 useTransition unchanged in React 19:
const [isPending, startTransition] = useTransition();
function handleClick() {
startTransition(() => {
setFilteredResults(computeExpensiveFilter(input));
});
}// React 18 useDeferredValue unchanged in React 19:
const deferredQuery = useDeferredValue(query);// React 18 Suspense with lazy unchanged in React 19:
const LazyComponent = React.lazy(() => import('./LazyComponent'));
function App() {
return (
<Suspense fallback={<Spinner />}>
<LazyComponent />
</Suspense>
);
}# Verify nothing touched these during migration:
