React Compiler
summary
Concrete claim: a build‑time compiler for React 19 removes manual memoization and produces plain JS that avoids unnecessary child rerenders. Demonstration uses a product page, Babel plugin + ESLint plugin and a runtime shim for older React, shows the timestamp stop changing when only a sibling prop updates. Internals reveal a memo cache (three cached slots for two props plus computed JSX) and a playground that generates the optimized output so the approach actually works.
