Most of the work developer does is refactoring and restructuring existing code. While working with React at Product Hunt, I noticed common patterns our team use to deal with changing project requirements. If you have problems dealing with external dependences, reusability and rapidly project iterations - this is the talk for you. Often we start with one top-level redux-connected component and then splitting into several smaller HOCs. One other pattern we use at Product Hunt is to wrap external component to reduce their surface area in the application. This also helps with dealing with dependencies updates
