Replacing componentWillReceiveProps react lifecycle method with componentDidUpdate about aphrodite

[Brianzchen]

I believe your old codebase has been using aphrodite wrong this whole time. You don't need to add styles in componentWillReceiveProps.

Firstly, I would ask are you using styles anywhere outside of the render() function? If not then just move your styles creation to render() like so,

class Comp extends React.Component {
  render() {
    const styles = (args) => StyleSheet.create({
      something: {
        width: this.props.width,
        // ... and anything else
      },
    });

    return (
      <div className={css(styles.something)} />
    );
  }
}

If you are assigning styles to this.styles because you have some other use case for styles besides rendering components then I would ask what that is and we can figure that out. Otherwise there's no reason to use more methods and overcomplicate your styling solution.
