How to avoid crash on component change?

[therealgilles]

This is more of a question than an issue but I was not sure where else to post.

I enabled text balancing on a React component whose content can change based on its props. Due to how the props are computed, the content of the component changes when it is mounted. Due to JS event scheduling, the component content changes as the balance-text library is trying to balance the text, leading to window.getComputedStyle() to error out as the element is gone, and removeChild() to also error out.

Any suggestions on how to work around this problem? (which I admit is not really an issue with the library)

Maybe some React experts can pipe in here on how to best use this library with React..

I haven't tried it, but there's a React Wrap Balancer component that may work better for you:
