To refactor React components with too many boolean props, replace conditional rendering logic with explicit variant components like ThreadComposer or EditComposer, and share internal state via context providers instead of prop drilling to create a scalable composition structure.

The compound component pattern in React uses a Provider boundary plus composed subcomponents like Frame, Input, and Footer so internals are shared via context, eliminating prop drilling and preventing impossible UI combinations caused by boolean mode flags.

To lift state with dependency-injected context in React, centralize state management in a provider boundary and expose a generic contract interface containing state, actions, and meta that multiple providers can implement for flexible UI composition.

Yes, this React composition pattern works with React 19 by applying specific API guidance such as treating ref as a regular prop and preferring the use() hook over useContext() for accessing context values within your compound component trees.

You should use explicit variant components instead of boolean props to eliminate impossible and undefined UI combinations, which solves the maintainability collapse that occurs when React components grow hidden conditional branches that are hard to reason about.
