Parents & Owners in React: Context Providers
Understanding how parent and owner components affect context updates can help you write more performant context providers
I’m Jules. I’m a software engineer with a background in geoscience engineering.
I’m passionate about on making ideas, systems and processes more understandable.
I believe that maps, charts, and diagrams are a great way to do that.
I’m passionate about the World Wide web, its reach, its usefulness. I believe that it is a great place to build and share useful tools for understanding.
At the moment I’m working on making geotechnical data more useful at Bedrock.engineer.
I am currently available for freelance work. I’m mostly interested in web geospatial, data visualisation using d3.js and React but I’m open to many kinds of interesting work. Especially if it’s in (geo)scientific fields. Let’s connect, send me an email jules.blom@bedrock.engineer
