+## Use toSorted() Instead of sort() for Immutability
+
+`.sort()` mutates the array in place, which can cause bugs with React state and props. Use `.toSorted()` to create a new sorted array without mutation.
+
+**Incorrect (mutates original array):**
+
+```typescript
+function UserList({ users }: { users: User[] }) {
+  // Mutates the users prop array!
+  const sorted = useMemo(
+    () => users.sort((a, b) => a.name.localeCompare(b.name)),
+    [users]
+  )
+  return <div>{sorted.map(renderUser)}</div>
+}
+```
+
+**Correct (creates new array):**
+
+```typescript
+function UserList({ users }: { users: User[] }) {
+  // Creates new sorted array, original unchanged
+  const sorted = useMemo(
+    () => users.toSorted((a, b) => a.name.localeCompare(b.name)),
+    [users]
+  )
+  return <div>{sorted.map(renderUser)}</div>
+}
+```
+
+**Why this matters in React:**
+
+1. Props/state mutations break React's immutability model - React expects props and state to be treated as read-only
+2. Causes stale closure bugs - Mutating arrays inside closures (callbacks, effects) can lead to unexpected behavior
+
+**Browser support (fallback for older browsers):**
+
+`.toSorted()` is available in all modern browsers (Chrome 110+, Safari 16+, Firefox 115+, Node.js 20+). For older environments, use spread operator:
+
+```typescript
+// Fallback for older browsers
+const sorted = [...items].sort((a, b) => a.value - b.value)
+```
+
+**Other immutable array methods:**
+
+- `.toSorted()` - immutable sort
+- `.toReversed()` - immutable reverse
+- `.toSpliced()` - immutable splice
+- `.with()` - immutable element replacement
