It uses hooks and functional components which are the way most people are doing it from what I know. I also find the code DeepSeek and Qwen produce is generally pretty clear and to the point. At the end of the day what really matters is that you have clean code that you're going to be able to maintain.
I also find that you can treat components as black boxes. As long as it's behaving the way that's intended it doesn't really matter how it's implemented internally. And now with LLMs it matters even less because the cost of creating a new component from scratch is pretty low.
Does it memoize with the right selection of stateful variables by default? I can't imagine it does without a very specific prompt or unless it is very simple boilerplate TODO app stuff. How about nested state using contexts? I'm sure it can do this but will it know how best to do so and use it by default?
In my experience, LLMs produce a less repeatable and correct version of what codegen tools do, more or less. You get a lot of repetition and inappropriate abstractions.
Also just for context, hooks and functional components are about 6-7 years old.
