React Hooks Blog

Introduction

React Hooks are a powerful and concise way to define and use functional components in React. They simplify state management, callbacks, and more.

Key Concepts

Component Composition: Creating reusable components.
Hooks: Functions that let you use React features like state and lifecycle methods.
useState, useEffect, etc.: Commonly used hooks to manage state and side effects.

Example

Here's a simplified example of a React Hook: useState()

This hook returns a state variable that can be updated with a function that updates the state value.

return useState(0)

This function will return a state variable equal to 0.

return useState()


            This returns the state variable useState()
