How do you memoize a component?

There are memoize libraries available which can be used on function components.

For example moize library can memoize the component in another component.

import moize from 'moize';
import Component from './components/Component'; // this module exports a non-memoized component
const MemoizedFoo = moize.react(Component);
const Consumer = () => {
<div>
{'I will memoize the following entry:'}
<MemoizedFoo />
</div>;
};

Update: Since React v16.6.0, we have a React.memo. It provides a higher order component which memoizes component unless the props change. To use it, simply wrap the component using React.memo before you use it.

const MemoComponent = React.memo(function MemoComponent(props) {
/* render using props */
});
OR;
export default React.memo(MyFunctionComponent);
