Calling actions outside a React event handler in pre React 18	10

Because React handles setState synchronously if it's called outside an event handler, updating the state outside an event handler will force react to update the components synchronously. Therefore, there is a risk of encountering the zombie-child effect. In order to fix this, the action needs to be wrapped in unstable_batchedUpdates like so:

import { unstable_batchedUpdates } from 'react-dom' // or 'react-native'

const useFishStore = create((set) => ({
  fishes: 0,
  increaseFishes: () => set((prev) => ({ fishes: prev.fishes + 1 })),
}))

const nonReactCallback = () => {
  unstable_batchedUpdates(() => {
    useFishStore.getState().increaseFishes()
  })
}
