[Suggestion]: Glossary of React-specific jargon/concepts

Summary

Create a new page with a glossary of React-specific jargon/concepts.

Page

https://react.dev/learn/glossary or https://react.dev/reference/glossary

Details

The React ecosystem has many React-specific jargon/concepts that may not translate directly into Plain English. Having a glossary of terms will make it easier to introduce new concepts, revamp existing pages, and explain React concepts without duplicating explanations across multiple reference pages.

Some recent examples where a glossary could be helpful:

• In the Revamp useOptimistic docs pr #8264, there was extensive discussion of Transitions vs Actions vs Transition or Actions. Also, there is some positionally confusing linking of the actions section in the useTransition hook.
• In the useEffectEvent revamp pr #8279, the Event Effect concept could use a definition, so the page can focus on the hook.
• Introduce or soft launch new ideas like Async React, Action Props, etc., when the full docs are not ready or known, so educators and learners can speak the same language.

With the recent additions of LLMS.txt #8267 and Claud files #8280, LLMs can provide a first pass at creating a glossary and identify potential areas where other documentation is weak.

Here is a quick sample glossary I created leveraging LLMs https://github.com/MaxwellCohen/cheat-sheets/blob/main/react/react-glossary.md

Commencez par examiner les emplacements proposés pour le glossaire, la documentation React existante et le glossaire d’exemple associé. Comparez les termes mentionnés dans les discussions sur useOptimistic et useEffectEvent, puis définissez la portée et la structure d’une nouvelle page de glossaire qui réduira les explications en double dans la documentation.
