### `React.PureComponent`
`React.PureComponent` is exactly like [`React.Component`](#reactcomponent), but implements [`shouldComponentUpdate()`](/docs/react-component.html#shouldcomponentupdate) with a shallow prop and state comparison, which [`React.Component`](#reactcomponent) is missing completely.
`React.PureComponent` is similar to [`React.Component`](#reactcomponent). The difference between them is that [`React.Component`](#reactcomponent) doesn't implement [`shouldComponentUpdate()`](/docs/react-component.html#shouldcomponentupdate), but `React.PureComponent` implements it with a shallow prop and state comparison.
If your React component's `render()` function renders the same result given the same props and state, you can use `React.PureComponent` for a performance boost in some cases.
