In modern web development, state management is the cornerstone of interactive applications. Qwik, a promising new player in the frontend framework arena, introduces a reactivity model that's as efficient as it is innovative.
At its core, Qwik's reactivity system is designed around the concept of fine-grained reactivity. Unlike traditional frameworks that rely on a virtual DOM to track changes, Qwik operates directly on the actual DOM, attaching listeners and updating only the parts of the DOM that have changed. This approach minimizes the overhead and maximizes performance, especially for large applications.
Qwik also allows for computed values and side effects, which are reactive operations that can derive new data or perform actions in response to state changes. In the TemperatureConverter component, useWatch$ is used to create a side effect that logs the temperature in Fahrenheit whenever the celsius state changes. The track function is used to specify which state should trigger the side effect.
