## Strategic Suspense Boundaries
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of awaiting data in async components before returning JSX, use Suspense boundaries to show the wrapper UI faster while data loads.
|
||||
|
||||
**Incorrect (wrapper blocked by data fetching):**
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
async function Page() {
|
||||
const data = await fetchData() // Blocks entire page
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<div>Sidebar</div>
|
||||
<div>Header</div>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<DataDisplay data={data} />
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div>Footer</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The entire layout waits for data even though only the middle section needs it.
|
||||
|
||||
**Correct (wrapper shows immediately, data streams in):**
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
function Page() {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<div>Sidebar</div>
|
||||
<div>Header</div>
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<Suspense fallback={<Skeleton />}>
|
||||
<DataDisplay />
|
||||
</Suspense>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<div>Footer</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
async function DataDisplay() {
|
||||
const data = await fetchData() // Only blocks this component
|
||||
return <div>{data.content}</div>
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Sidebar, Header, and Footer render immediately. Only DataDisplay waits for data.
|
||||
|
||||
**Alternative (share promise across components):**
|
||||
|
||||
```tsx
|
||||
function Page() {
|
||||
// Start fetch immediately, but don't await
|
||||
const dataPromise = fetchData()
|
||||
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<div>Sidebar</div>
|
||||
<div>Header</div>
|
||||
<Suspense fallback={<Skeleton />}>
|
||||
<DataDisplay dataPromise={dataPromise} />
|
||||
<DataSummary dataPromise={dataPromise} />
|
||||
</Suspense>
|
||||
<div>Footer</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
function DataDisplay({ dataPromise }: { dataPromise: Promise<Data> }) {
|
||||
const data = use(dataPromise) // Unwraps the promise
|
||||
return <div>{data.content}</div>
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
function DataSummary({ dataPromise }: { dataPromise: Promise<Data> }) {
|
||||
const data = use(dataPromise) // Reuses the same promise
|
||||
return <div>{data.summary}</div>
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Both components share the same promise, so only one fetch occurs. Layout renders immediately while both components wait together.
|
||||
|
||||
**When NOT to use this pattern:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Critical data needed for layout decisions (affects positioning)
|
||||
- SEO-critical content above the fold
|
||||
- Small, fast queries where suspense overhead isn't worth it
|
||||
- When you want to avoid layout shift (loading → content jump)
|
||||
|
||||
**Trade-off:** Faster initial paint vs potential layout shift. Choose based on your UX priorities.
