Goodbye, useState? Smarter state modeling for modern React apps

Ever opened a React file and found a graveyard of useState hooks? The problem isn’t React; it’s how we model state. Here’s how to do it smarter.

  1. Nice, simple and helpful article.

    I have one suggestion. In the first example I would recommend using the
    setState(prevstate => prevstate + 1)
    syntax , because in more complex scenarios, where the setState is called from multiple places, the result not always what we expect. Although in this simple Example it will work perfectly fine.

  2. I think i’m missing something. How is any of this unique to NextJS? Most of this is just React specific hooks?

    1. well nextjs is built on top of react and most of the things are common, It just adds some more optimization logic that is all.
