A practical guide to four JavaScript component patterns for scaling web applications: Container-Presentational, Base-Variant, Factory, and Composable Components. Each pattern is explained with use cases, trade-offs, and code examples. The post also introduces a framework for categorizing features as Core, Support, or Generic to determine which pattern to apply. The Composable Components pattern is highlighted as the most flexible for high-change features, combining layout components, composables/hooks, and renderless container components.
