Day 95 of #100DaysOfCode Understanding Prop Drilling and When to Use State Management Libraries Today I dug into one of the common early challenges in React: prop drilling, and why it quickly becomes a problem as apps scale. Prop drilling happens when a parent component passes data down through multiple layers of components, even when some of those components don’t need the data. It works, but it doesn’t scale. The deeper your component tree gets, the harder it becomes to read, debug, and maintain. Example: If App → Parent → Child → Grandchild all pass the same prop, only the last one actually uses it. Multiply this by dozens of components and you get “prop drilling hell.” Why This Becomes an Issue Unnecessary passing of props through components that don’t need them Harder to maintain as the app grows Harder to debug Easy to create inconsistent or duplicated state
