Breakdown of growth, maintenance, and fixes effort over time.
Bugs introduced vs. fixed over time.
Reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution. Commits that introduced bugs are retrospectively counted as poor investments.
Investment Quality reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution data. Commits identified as buggy origins (those that introduced bugs later fixed by someone) have their grow and maintenance time moved into the Wasted Time category. Their waste (fix commits) remains counted as productive. All other commits retain their standard classification: grow is productive, maintenance is maintenance, and waste (fixes) is productive.
The standard model classifies commits as Growth, Maintenance, or Fixes. Investment Quality adds a quality lens: a commit that introduced a bug is retrospectively counted as a poor investment — the engineering time spent on it was wasted because it ultimately required additional fix work. Fix commits (Fixes in the standard model) are reframed as productive, because fixing bugs is valuable work.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 93882bd | This commit **corrects terminology** within **React's error messages** related to the `useActionState` hook. It updates all references from "form state" to "action state" for improved accuracy and consistency, reflecting the hook's broader applicability. This **bug fix** impacts the **`react-reconciler`** runtime by modifying the error message in `dispatchActionState`, updates a corresponding test in **`react-dom`**, and revises the error code definition in `scripts/error-codes/codes.json`. The change ensures developers receive clear and consistent error messages when interacting with `useActionState`. | Mar 4 | 3 | maint |
| 074d96b | This commit introduces the `enableTrustedTypesIntegration` feature flag, enabling **React's integration** with the browser's **Trusted Types API**. Previously, React's **DOM rendering mechanism** would stringify values for `dangerouslySetInnerHTML` and various attributes, inadvertently breaking Trusted Types enforcement and causing `TypeError`s. This **new capability** now ensures that `TrustedHTML` and `TrustedScriptURL` objects are passed directly to DOM APIs, preserving their type and allowing proper **XSS prevention**. This **compatibility fix** primarily benefits applications leveraging Trusted Types, with no behavioral change for those not using the API. | Feb 25 | 8 | grow |
| 892c686 | This commit delivers a **bug fix** to the **React Fiber reconciler's error logging** mechanism, preventing internal `<Offscreen>` components from appearing in error messages. Previously, errors occurring within lazy components directly nested under `<Suspense>` or `<Activity>` would incorrectly report `<Offscreen>`. The `getComponentNameFromFiber` function in `packages/react-reconciler/src/getComponentNameFromFiber.js` is now modified to skip this internal component and instead return the name of its user-facing parent. This change significantly improves the **developer experience** by providing more semantically relevant and actionable error messages. New test cases have been added to `ReactIncrementalErrorLogging-test.js` to ensure this corrected behavior. | Feb 11 | 2 | waste |
| 95ffd6c | This commit **disables** the `enableParallelTransitions` feature flag within the **ReactFeatureFlags** system by setting its value to `false` in `packages/shared/ReactFeatureFlags.js`. This is a **fix** to revert an accidental enablement of the **parallel transitions** functionality in **canary builds**. The change ensures that this experimental feature remains inactive, preventing unintended behavior or premature exposure in development versions. | Feb 5 | 1 | waste |
| 3aaab92 | This commit introduces the **`enableEffectEventMutationPhase` feature flag** to control a significant internal change within the **React Reconciler's commit process**. It **refactors** how `useEffectEvent` callbacks are updated, moving this operation to the mutation phase, specifically impacting `commitBeforeMutationEffectsOnFiber` and `commitMutationEffectsOnFiber`. This adjustment serves as a small **optimization** and, more importantly, **fixes a bug** where `useEffectEvent` callbacks failed to update correctly when a component tree became visible after being hidden, particularly when `enableViewTransition` was enabled. New test cases have been added to ensure the correct ordering and behavior of `useEffectEvent` with interleaved effects and `Activity` components. | Feb 4 | 12 | maint |
| 087a346 | This commit **adds a new test case** to `packages/react-reconciler/src/__tests__/Activity-test.js` to verify a critical lifecycle behavior. The test specifically ensures that the `getSnapshotBeforeUpdate` method **does not execute in hidden component trees** when the `enableViewTransition` feature is active. This **test addition** validates a **bugfix** that prevents `getSnapshotBeforeUpdate` from running incorrectly for components that are not yet visible, aligning its behavior with `componentWillUpdate`. This ensures correct component state management and lifecycle execution, particularly during view transitions where component visibility changes. | Feb 4 | 1 | maint |
| 6913ea4 | This commit introduces the **`enableParallelTransitions` feature flag** within the **React scheduler and reconciler**, allowing for more independent completion of concurrent transitions. This **new capability** modifies the **lane prioritization logic** in `ReactFiberLane.js` to reduce unnecessary entanglement of transition lanes, potentially improving perceived performance by letting independent updates commit in parallel. While the flag is set to `true` by default in the main `ReactFeatureFlags.js`, it is explicitly disabled for most external builds and is currently intended for **internal research and experimentation** at Meta to assess its benefits and potential breaking changes. New test cases have been added to verify the updated transition and `useDeferredValue` behavior. | Feb 4 | 12 | grow |
| 3e00319 | This commit introduces a **new capability** for **React Server Components (RSC)**, allowing them to seamlessly import and render `Context.Provider` from client modules. Previously, lazy-resolved `REACT_CONTEXT_TYPE` components were not correctly handled, leading to errors when a Server Component attempted to use a client-defined context. The core change involves modifying `mountLazyComponent` in `packages/react-reconciler` to properly process these lazy-loaded context types. This enhancement significantly improves **context management** patterns within RSC, enabling more flexible state sharing and component composition between server and client boundaries. | Feb 3 | 9 | grow |
| 230772f | This commit **fixes a test failure** in `ReactDOMAttribute-test.js` within the **`react-dom` testing suite**, addressing a **JSDOM bug** related to implicit string coercion. It introduces a **JSDOM hack** to `Element.prototype.setAttribute` for the test environment, ensuring correct behavior when attributes are set. This workaround, similar to one in `ReactDOMSelect-test.js`, clarifies **trusted types** error expectations and guarantees consistent string coercion behavior between development and production builds. The change specifically targets the test environment to accurately validate attribute handling. | Jan 28 | 2 | maint |
| e66ef64 | This commit **refactors the internal test infrastructure** by **removing the `withoutStack` option** from the `consoleMock` assertion helpers, specifically the `createLogAssertion` utility. This option became obsolete as these helpers now consistently **mandate the presence of a component stack** in console messages during tests. Consequently, numerous test files across various React packages, including `react-dom`, `react-reconciler`, and `react`, have been updated to remove the now-unnecessary `withoutStack` argument from calls to `assertConsoleErrorDev` and `assertConsoleWarnDev`. This change simplifies the test API and ensures uniform console assertion behavior within the project's test suite. | Jan 28 | 43 | maint |
| a056625 | This commit introduces the **initial setup and configuration for the Claude AI assistant** within the monorepo, significantly enhancing **developer tooling and workflow**. It establishes a sophisticated context management system to ensure the assistant's knowledge and skills are correctly scoped, preventing parent configurations from interfering when working within the nested `compiler/` directory. This is achieved by conditionally loading general repository instructions via a `SessionStart` hook and explicitly denying parent skills in `compiler/.claude/settings.json`. Additionally, a suite of **new React-specific skills** like `/flow`, `/test`, and `/fix` are added, providing targeted assistance for common development tasks and improving developer productivity. | Jan 24 | 11 | grow |
| 2d8e7f1 | This commit **removes the `enableHydrationLaneScheduling` feature flag** from the **React reconciler**, marking a significant **cleanup** and **refactoring** effort. As this flag was a killswitch that has been enabled for over a year, its removal simplifies the codebase by eliminating dead conditional logic. Specifically, it streamlines lane assignment within `mountDehydratedSuspenseComponent` in `packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberBeginWork.js` and simplifies lane bumping in `createHydrationContainer` and `attemptHydrationAtCurrentPriority` within `packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberReconciler.js`. This **maintenance** task reduces internal complexity in the core **hydration mechanism** without impacting external behavior or features. | Jan 22 | 10 | maint |
| 195fd22 | This commit delivers a crucial **bug fix** to resolve **flaky flight tests** that were failing non-deterministically in both local and CI environments. It addresses two distinct sources of test instability: first, by adding an `afterEach` hook to `scripts/jest/setupTests.js` to **disable installed async hooks** and prevent cross-test pollution between tests. Second, it enhances the `normalizeIOInfo` function in `packages/internal-test-utils/debugInfo.js` to **consistently normalize IO information** during snapshotting, specifically handling `undefined` values to mitigate issues caused by non-deterministic `WeakRef` garbage collection. This significantly improves the **reliability and stability of the test suite** by eliminating these non-deterministic failures. | Jan 18 | 2 | waste |
| d87298a | This commit introduces a **new feature** to the **Jest CLI**, enabling a silent test reporter mode. It adds a `--silent` command-line option to `scripts/jest/jest-cli.js`, which configures the test runner to display only failed tests while showing progress with dots. This enhancement significantly **reduces test output verbosity**, making it easier to quickly identify issues and providing a cleaner interface for automated systems or agents that process test results. The change affects the **test reporting mechanism** and improves the developer experience by minimizing unnecessary console output. | Jan 18 | 3 | grow |
| be3fb29 | This commit **reverts an accidentally merged change** that introduced logic for the `enableEffectEventMutationPhase` feature flag. It removes the conditional code block and associated logic from the `commitBeforeMutationEffectsOnFiber` and `commitMutationEffectsOnFiber` functions within `packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberCommitWork.js`. Additionally, the import for `enableEffectEventMutationPhase` is removed and comments are updated in `packages/react-reconciler/src/ReactFiberFlags.js`. This **maintenance revert** ensures the **React Reconciler** module returns to its prior state, allowing for the feature to be properly reviewed and introduced later. | Jan 17 | 12 | maint |
| 23e5edd | This commit **refactors** the internal implementation of **`useEffectEvent` callbacks** within the **React Reconciler**. It moves the mutation of these callbacks from the before-mutation phase to the mutation phase, now controlled by a new feature flag, `enableEffectEventMutationPhase`. The previous `enableUseEffectEventHook` flag is entirely removed across all environments, signifying that `useEffectEvent` is no longer gated by a feature flag for its core functionality. This **maintenance** work simplifies the codebase by removing conditional checks in various hook dispatchers and updates internal types, ensuring a more stable and predictable lifecycle for `useEffectEvent`. | Jan 17 | 17 | maint |
| 3e1abcc | This commit **enhances the console assertion utilities** in `packages/internal-test-utils/consoleMock.js` to require exact error messages, including native JavaScript stack traces. To simplify maintenance, a `\n in <stack>` placeholder can now be used in expected messages to denote the presence of a stack trace without needing to hardcode full stack details. This **test infrastructure improvement** affects numerous **React component and feature tests** across various packages, which are updated to leverage these more precise console error expectations. The change improves the **reliability and accuracy of console output assertions**, ensuring that tests catch exact message regressions and environment-specific console output. | Jan 13 | 16 | grow |
| 0972e23 | This commit **adds support for React's `useOptimistic` hook** to the **React Compiler**, specifically within the `babel-plugin-react-compiler`. It **extends the compiler's High-level Intermediate Representation (HIR)** by introducing new type definitions and stability analysis functions to correctly identify `useOptimistic` and its setter as non-reactive. This **new capability** ensures that components leveraging `useOptimistic` are properly optimized and memoized, preventing unnecessary re-renders. The changes involve updating `Globals.ts` and `ObjectShape.ts` to recognize these new types, and are validated by new test cases for `useCallback` memoization. | Nov 18 | 5 | grow |
| bbe3f4d | This commit **re-enables legacy mode** by reverting the `disableLegacyMode` feature flag from `true` to `false` within the **React feature flags** configuration. Specifically, it modifies `ReactFeatureFlags.native-fb.js` and `ReactFeatureFlags.native-oss.js`, impacting both **Facebook internal native builds** and **open-source native builds**. This is a **temporary maintenance fix** to address **failing tests** in the `react` package, which currently requires legacy mode to function correctly. The change prevents further test failures until the underlying test suite can be updated to support the disabled legacy mode. | Nov 12 | 3 | waste |
| 04ee54c | This commit **adds new test cases** to `ReactDOMActivity-test.js` to thoroughly validate the interaction between **Portals** and **Activity boundaries**. These tests specifically confirm the expected behavior of how **Portals** function when combined with activity states, including scenarios involving hidden trees, new insertions, `Suspense` components, and layout effects. The work is a **maintenance** task focused on **testing** to ensure the correctness and stability of these complex rendering mechanisms within the **React DOM reconciler**. This enhances confidence in the robust handling of dynamic UI elements and their activity states. | Nov 11 | 1 | maint |
