Button onClick Handler Not Firing After Changes
Buttons that were previously clickable no longer trigger their onClick handlers after Cursor refactored the component code. Users click buttons but nothing happens.
Event handler binding or attachment may have been broken.
Error Messages You Might See
handleClick is not a function
Button click not working
No response to click
Event handler undefined
Common Causes
- onClick handler removed from JSX button element
- Handler function moved but not imported/referenced
- Handler function syntax changed (arrow vs function declaration)
- onClick handler wrapping code removed in refactoring
- Event handler 'this' context lost in class component
How to Fix It
Verify onClick is set: <button onClick={handleClick}>. Arrow functions preserve 'this': const handleClick = () => {}. In class, bind: this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this). Check handler function exists and is imported.

I’ve watched the tech landscape evolve over the last decade—from the structured days of Java Server Pages to the current "wild west" of Agentic-driven development. While AI can "vibe" a frontend into existence, I specialize in the architecture that keeps it from collapsing.
My expertise lies in the critical backend infrastructure: the parts that must be fast, secure, and scalable. I thrive on high-pressure environments, such as when I had only three weeks to architect and launch an Ethereum redemption system with minimal prior crypto knowledge, turning it into a major revenue stream.
What I bring to your project:
Forensic Debugging: I don't just "patch" bugs; I use tools like Datadog and Explain Analyzers to map out bottlenecks and resolve root causes—like significantly reducing memory usage by optimizing complex DB joins.
Full-Stack Context: Deep experience in Node.js and React, ensuring backends play perfectly with mobile and web teams.
Sanity in the Age of AI: I bridge the gap between "best practices" and modern speed, ensuring your project isn't just built fast, but built to last.
