## Use Transitions for Non-Urgent Updates
Mark frequent, non-urgent state updates as transitions to maintain UI responsiveness.
**Incorrect (blocks UI on every scroll):**
```tsx
function ScrollTracker() {
const [scrollY, setScrollY] = useState(0)
useEffect(() => {
const handler = () => setScrollY(window.scrollY)
window.addEventListener('scroll', handler, { passive: true })
return () => window.removeEventListener('scroll', handler)
}, [])
}
```
**Correct (non-blocking updates):**
```tsx
import { startTransition } from 'react'
function ScrollTracker() {
const [scrollY, setScrollY] = useState(0)
useEffect(() => {
const handler = () => {
startTransition(() => setScrollY(window.scrollY))
}
window.addEventListener('scroll', handler, { passive: true })
return () => window.removeEventListener('scroll', handler)
}, [])
}
```
