How does React Suspense work under the hood?
Updated Feb 17, 2026
Short answer
Suspense allows React to pause rendering until asynchronous data resolves.
Deep explanation
Suspense works by throwing a promise during rendering. React catches it and renders a fallback UI. Once the promise resolves, rendering resumes. It integrates deeply with concurrent rendering and streaming.
