Learn how React 18 groups state updates for fewer renders, see a concrete example with setTimeout, and discover how to verify or disable the behavior when needed.
Goal: Verify whether React 18’s automatic batching consistently groups multiple state updates that originate from asynchronous callbacks (such as setTimeout or promise resolution) when StrictMode is disabled, providing a predictable single render in a repeatable development setup. Constraints: StrictMode double‑invokes render phases and effect clean‑ups, whi
