Descrizione

When using React for server rendering, it can be problematic when a component relies on window or document or other globals inside of render. It will cause checksum issues when you get to the client. Instead of checking whether you are on the client within render, it's better to use the componentDidMount lifecycle event to set a state which is used in render instead.

Problematic:

class Foo extends React.Component {
    render() {
        if (typeof window === 'undefined') {
            return null;
        }
        return <Bar />;
    }
}

Better:

class Foo extends React.Component {
    constructor() {
        this.state = {showBar: false};
    }
    componentDidMount() {
        this.setState({showBar: true});
    }
    render() {
        if (!this.state.showBar) {
            return null;
        }
        return <Bar />;
    }
}
