noRenderReturnValue
Diagnostic Category: lint/correctness/noRenderReturnValue
Since: v1.0.0
Description
Section titled “Description”Prevent the usage of the return value of React.render.
ReactDOM.render()currently returns a reference to the rootReactComponentinstance. However, using this return value is legacy and should be avoided because future versions of React may render components asynchronously in some cases. If you need a reference to the rootReactComponentinstance, the preferred solution is to attach a callback ref to the root element.
