If you're preparing for senior React interviews especially ones focused on architecture and UI patterns, I’ve put together 5 advanced questions that go way beyond hooks and props.
These aren’t theoretical questions.
Each one includes real-world scenarios, trade-offs, demos, and full code walkthroughs — all available on IOCombats.
Here are 5 advanced UI-pattern-focused React interview questions you can prepare yourself with:
Design a full-featured calendar with day/week/month views, event creation, drag-to-resize, recurring events, and conflict detection.
