This is a replacement for the hack I implemented in
bb901c4d8a
It accomplishes the same effect, but with just setting the key prop.
Sadly, it does not work with just setting the key prop to the theme
but forcing the key prop to be re-set by including the date does the
trick.
To be clear: This is still a hack and I'd love to avoid it (or just
understand the right way to handle this) but for now it will do.
This is a workaround for the following problem that I can't seem
to understand.
This JSX code:
<p data-theme={props.app.theme}>{props.app.theme}</p>
Is rendered as:
<p data-theme="light">dark</p>
This happens only upon initial page load because on the server
side we don't know the user's preferred theme. So we start with
the default (light).
Then, as the app bootstraps in the browser, it updated the content
of the P tag with the new theme (dark).
However, for reasons that I really don't understand, it does not
update the `data-theme` attribute.
So this works around that be forcing a different component for each
theme that has the data-theme hardcoded. By force-rendering a different
component, we can be certain React has no choice be to re-render the
entire tag.
If anybody could explain to me why this happen, I'd gladly buy you
a coffee or something.
