Document memoization as alternative to componentWillReceiveProps #830

Open gaearon opened 6 years ago

We get a lot of feedback that getDerivedStateFromProps is used for memoization which is not very ergonomic.

Let’s add a recipe about memoizing directly to the docs.

We should probably use this package:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/memoize-one

It’s important to highlight that we usually recommend memoizing just the last value.
