 [React Compiler](/learn/react-compiler) is a build-time tool that optimizes your React app through automatic memoization.

Fundamentally, React Compiler relies on an old idea from functional programming: pure functions don't "do" anything (they only compute things), so it is safe to reorder their calls, or to reuse their past output for the same inputs. React Compiler checks that your code follows the [Rules of React](https://react.dev/reference/rules) which ensure your code can be reordered this way.

+Like many features in React itself, the React Compiler relies on an old idea from functional programming: pure functions don't "do" anything (they only compute things), so it is safe to reorder their calls, or to reuse their past output for the same inputs. The React Compiler first checks that your components follow the [Rules of React](https://react.dev/reference/rules), and for those that do, it breaks up the code into blocks that can be safely skipped or reordered.
