<!-- end auto-generated rule header -->

A `bind` call or [arrow function](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/Arrow_functions) in a JSX prop will create a brand new function on every single render. This is bad for performance, as it may cause unnecessary re-renders if a brand new function is passed as a prop to a component that uses reference equality check on the prop to determine if it should update.
Using `bind` on a function or declaring a function in the render method of a component or the body of a functional component, and then passing that function as a prop will mean that the brand new function that is created on every single render will be considered a completely different function. This can affect performance in some situations, as it may cause unnecessary re-renders if a brand new function is passed as a prop to a component that uses reference equality check on the prop to determine if it should update, such as a component wrapped with [`memo`](https://react.dev/reference/react/memo#memo), or if the prop is used in any hook's "dependency array".

Note that this behavior is different for `ref` props, which is a special case in React that **does not** cause re-renders when a brand new function is passed. See [`ignore-refs`](#ignorerefs) below for more information.

## When Not To Use It

If you do not use JSX or do not want to enforce that `bind` or arrow functions are not used in props, then you can disable this rule.
