How do you avoid common problems with effects?
Model answer
Do not use effects to copy one signal into another; use computed or linkedSignal. Avoid setting signals inside effects unless you really need to, because it can create confusing update chains and loops. Keep effects for side effects: logging, analytics, syncing with local storage or a non-Angular library, and DOM work.
Clean up with the onCleanup callback if the effect starts timers or listeners, and read signals you do not want to track with untracked().
