Code Review & Refactoring

You:
@src/components/UserProfile.tsx Can you review this component and suggest improvements?
Claude:
I'll analyze your UserProfile component. Here are my recommendations:
1. Performance: Add React.memo() to prevent unnecessary re-renders
2. TypeScript: Make props interface more specific
3. Accessibility: Add ARIA labels for screen readers

Safe Experimentation

You:
Can you refactor this component to use hooks instead of classes?
Claude:
I'll refactor your component to use React hooks. Don't worry - I'll create a checkpoint first!
✓ Created automatic checkpoint
You can restore instantly with "Restore Checkpoint" if needed
