Managing Suspense for Multiple Dependencies in React
When developing applications in React, one of the common challenges developers face is managing loading states for multiple components, especially when those components have their own dependencies. React's Suspense provides a way to handle loading states seamlessly, but how do you organize it effectively when dealing with multiple lazy-loaded components? In this guide, we’ll explore how to structure your Suspense declarations so that you can enhance user experience while maintaining efficient resource loading.
The Problem
Imagine you have two components, ComponentA and ComponentB, which are loaded lazily using React's lazy. The initial setup for handling these components using the Suspense wrapper may look neat and organized. However, complications arise when ComponentA has multiple dependencies that also require lazy loading.
Example Scenarios
Scenario 1: Basic Setup
Here's how you might set up your routing with Suspense covering both components:

This scenario works well when ComponentA is the only component being loaded. However, what if ComponentA encompasses other dependencies that might also need their own loading indicators?
Scenario 2: Multiple Dependencies in ComponentA
If ComponentA has multiple dependencies, you'd find yourself needing more granular control over the loading states for those dependencies. The question emerges: Is it viable to separate the Suspense declarations for each dependency?

The Proposed Solution
You may want to structure your application like this for better handling of multiple loading indicators:

Benefits of This Approach
Granular Loading Indicators: By wrapping each dependency within its own Suspense, users will receive more relevant feedback on what specifically is loading. This can improve user experience, particularly in scenarios with slow-loading components.
Conditional Rendering: If some components are conditional (for example, depending on user input), multiple loaders help render only what is necessary, potentially improving performance.
Potential Downsides
Despite the benefits, consider the following downsides of this approach:
Multiple Requests: Each lazy component may yield multiple requests, which could slightly burden the network and increase loading times, especially if multiple dependencies are requested at the same time.
Loader Clutter: User experience can be negatively affected if there are too many loaders on the screen. A single skeleton screen might be aesthetically pleasing, preventing the page from jumping around as each loader resolves.
Conclusion
In summary, utilizing multiple Suspense declarations for dependencies in React is a completely viable approach when the goal is to provide distinct loading indicators for various components. While there are minor drawbacks to processing multiple requests, the user experience benefits often outweigh those issues. However, it's essential to keep an eye on the overall loading strategy and aim for a balance between clarity and simplicity in your UI.
When implementing this structure, always consider the user experience first—keeping the interface responsive and visually consistent is key to winning your users' hearts.
