forceUpdate VS forceReload

Question

I'm wondering what is the difference between forceUpdate() and forceReload() in ReactJS.

Tried to find some documentation about that but couldn't find some on forceReload()-

Thanks in advance!

Not sure where you saw it, but forceReload isn't a part of React. You presumably couldn't find documentation because there isn't any -- if I search for "forceReload" react right now, this question comes up first.

If you want to make a component rerender without changing its state or props, you should call forceUpdate.
