There are no "non-js things" going on. I'll grant that they're doing some out of the ordinary things in order to support hooks and suspense, but it's still just JavaScript. Edit: If you want to see how hooks are implemented without needing to understand the React codebase, Kyle Simpson has a project that provides hooks for non-React functions, the implementation is all in one file: https://github.com/getify/TNG-Hooks/blob/master/src/tng-hook...
