Thanks for the article Ashwin. Really helped me. One thing I just want to ask is about lifecycle methods and where they fit in. Let me give you an example, if I have a to do list and I want to play some kind of animation when a job is complete, previously I’d have compared old props and new props via componentDidUpdate or something similar, but I don’t see any room for lifecycle methods in your approach?
