### AI overview

React Context updates consumers when its provider value changes; it does not track which object fields each consumer reads, and React.memo does not block updates from a consumed Context. For frequently changing shared state, the article shows keeping a stable store in Context and using useSyncExternalStore to subscribe components to individual fields. The store compares old and new field values with Object.is and notifies only listeners for changed fields, while stable snapshots let React skip renders for unchanged values. The approach adds custom store and SSR snapshot requirements; server and hydration snapshots must agree, and external-store updates may require synchronous rendering instead of benefiting from transitions. Splitting state and action contexts can help writer-only components, while ordinary Context may suffice for small cases. Measure render costs before adding this complexity; for larger applications, an established library may be easier to maintain.
