HOOKS
In React, "hooks" are functions that allow you to
use state and other React features in functional
components. They were introduced in React
version 16.8 as a way to add stateful behavior
to functional components without the need to
convert them into class components. Prior to
hooks, stateful logic could only be implemented
in class components.
1. useState:
This hook allows you to add state
to your functional component. It
returns a state variable and a
function to update that state.
2. useEffect:
This hook is used for performing
side effects in functional
components, such as fetching
data, subscribing to events, or
manipulating the DOM. It runs
after every render by default.
3. useContext:
This hook enables you to access
data from a React context in
functional components, making
it easier to share data across the
component tree.
4. useReducer:
This hook is an alternative to
`useState` and is used for more
complex state management,
where the state logic can get
more involved.
5. useCallback and useMemo:
These hooks are used to optimize
performance by memoizing
functions and values to prevent
unnecessary re-computations.
6. useRef:
This hook allows you to create a
mutable reference that persists
across renders, which can be
useful for accessing DOM
elements or holding other
mutable values.
7. useLayoutEffect:
Similar to `useEffect`, but it
runs synchronously after all
DOM mutations have been
processed.
8. useImperativeHandle:
This hook allows you to
customize the instance value
that is exposed to parent
components when using `ref`
with `forwardRef`.
