Uncommon Tailwind CSS bug: Infinite loop in React component due to useEffect dependency array issue.

Infinite Loop in React Component using Tailwind CSS

This repository demonstrates an uncommon bug that can occur when using useEffect hook in a React component with Tailwind CSS. The bug causes an infinite loop and crashes the application.

Bug Description

The bug is caused by an incorrect use of the useEffect hook's dependency array. The setCount(count + 1) statement within the useEffect function causes the component to re-render, which then triggers the useEffect again, leading to an infinite loop. This is particularly problematic because it does not show up as a clear Tailwind error but is masked within the logic.

Bug Solution

The solution is to use the correct dependency array to control when the useEffect runs. By adding count to the dependency array, useEffect will only run when the value of count changes. Then it stops infinite loops by managing updates appropriately.
