react-async-patterns
Async/await correctness in React with Zustand. Use when debugging race conditions, missing awaits, floating promises, or async timing issues. Works for both React web and React Native.
Why this skill is useful
Provides specific patterns and scripts for detecting and preventing async issues in React applications using Zustand, which are not commonly known.

What this skill does
React Async Patterns Problem Statement Async bugs in React are insidious because they often work in development but fail under load or in edge cases. The most common issues: missing await on async functions, race conditions between state updates, and assuming operations complete in order. --- Pattern: Floating Promise Detection Problem: Calling an async function without await causes it to run in the background. If subsequent code depends on its completion, you get a race condition. Why it's subtle: Both functions might have async in their signature, but only one was awaited. The code "looks right" at a glance. Detection: Prevention: 1. ESLint rule @typescript-eslint/no-floating-promises - catches this at lint time 2. Code review trigger: Any line calling a function that might be async without await, return, or assignment --- Pattern: Post-Condition Validation Problem: Assuming an async call succeeded without verifying. The call might return early, throw silently, or fail to update state. Principle: Treat every async call as potentially failed until proven otherwise. When to validate: After loading data that subsequent operations depend on After state updates that must complete before continuing Before irreversible operations (submissions, deletions) Pattern template: --- Pattern: Async Function Identification Problem: Not all async functions look async. Zustand actions, callbacks, and promise-returning functions may not have obvious async keywords. Hidden async patterns: Detection: Check function signatures and implementations: --- Pattern: Sequential vs Parallel Async Problem: Running async operations sequentially when they could be parallel (slow), or parallel when they must be sequential (race condition). …
