useDeferredValue Hook in React!

Ever noticed UI lag when typing in a search bar that filters a large list? ๐Ÿค” Thatโ€™s because every keystroke triggers expensive computations.

With useDeferredValue, React prioritizes user interactions while delaying non-critical updates. This keeps the UI smooth and responsive!

โœจ Example Use Case:
Imagine a search bar filtering a huge dataset. Instead of blocking the UI with every keystroke, useDeferredValue ensures the input remains fast while the list updates with a slight delay.

Try it out and feel the difference! ๐Ÿš€
