How can unnecessary re-renders be prevented when using Context?

Mid React
Quick Answer Prevent Context re-renders by: splitting Context into smaller, focused Contexts (so components only subscribe to what they need), memoizing the Context value object with useMemo (so a new object isn't created every render unless values actually changed), or using Context.Provider around only the components that need it.

Answer

Split context into smaller contexts, memoize provider values, use useMemo/useCallback, or use selector-based libraries like Zustand or Jotai.
