Comparing Lifecycle Methods - React.js and Svelte
Modern applications involve many DOM manipulations. Components (and elements) are constantly being removed, added, updated, etc. to deliver incredible user experiences and/or to optimize performance. Sometimes, you may need to execute code when a component is added (such as automatically focusing an input field when a form is loaded like the G-Mail login page) or when a component is removed (such as removing all event listeners associated with that element to prevent memory leaks). Frameworks/libraries such as React.js and Svelte provide component lifecycle methods that allow developers to predictably execute code at these very moments/situations. Having such access into each stage a component undergoes provides more control over how and when the component should be rendered. Commonly, functions can be scheduled to be invoked when these events occur in the lifecycle of a component instance:
