Best Practices for Sharing user Across the App
Answered

Currently I'm using createContext and useContext to share user data (user object from database once they are logged in). It works great and all but I have a concern.
Currently I have a UserContext.tsx which uses 'use client' because it needs to use react hooks.
After that I wrap the children of the main layout.tsx with this context. And my concern is that wouldn't it make all the children a client component? And that would be bad for SEO. If it does, what is the method that you use to keep it SEO friendly?

No, it doesn't make children as a client component

You can use tanstack/react-query for better implementation and easy to use
It have many functions which optimized our app like fetching data cache it. Invalidate data at any time when user makes changes

Thank you for reassuring. I read more about it a bit and found that children passed into a client component can still be a server component unless they themselves explicityly use 'use client'.
I'll read more about tanstack/react-query. Does it work in a similar way as useContext to share user across the app?

You can implement it like react context for example: you make a custom hook just say useUser, and add all logic to there so whenever you use this hook you get immediate results because it chaches the data onces fetched
