Ensure components establish explicit dependencies when they need to react to external changes, and avoid state updates during build phases to prevent rendering conflicts.

When components depend on external state (like context or inherited data), use dependency-establishing patterns rather than direct lookups that don’t trigger rebuilds:

// Problematic: Overlay.of doesn't establish dependency
final overlayState = Overlay.of(context);

// Better: Use InheritedWidget-based approach that establishes dependencies
// This ensures rebuilds when the overlay changes

When state changes occur during build phases (like in didChangeDependencies), defer state updates to avoid “setState during build” errors:

void handleCloseRequest() {
  if (widget.onCloseRequested != null) {
    if (SchedulerBinding.instance.schedulerPhase != SchedulerPhase.persistentCallbacks) {
      // Defer to avoid setState during build
      SchedulerBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((_) {
        widget.onCloseRequested!();
      });
    } else {
      widget.onCloseRequested!();
    }
  }
}

This prevents runtime errors and ensures predictable component behavior, similar to React’s rules about not calling setState during render and properly managing effect dependencies.
