React Hooks cheat sheet: Best practices with examples

React Hooks have transformed how developers create React components by offering a straightforward API for managing state and side effects within functional components. This tutorial provides an in-depth exploration of React Hooks, updated with the latest additions such as useImperativeHandle, useFormStatus, and useOptimistic, to enhance component functionality and user experience. It includes best practices and use cases ranging from simple to complex, supported by an interactive web app demonstrating practical applications. Key Hooks like useState, useEffect, useContext, useReducer, useCallback, useMemo, and useRef are detailed with examples, illustrating their roles in state management, side effect handling, and performance optimization. Additionally, advanced Hooks like useTransition, useDeferredValue, and useId are explored for handling complex state transitions, deferred rendering, and generating unique IDs. The tutorial emphasizes optimizing React component performance and responsiveness, especially in scenarios involving heavy computations or dynamic updates, while offering insights into both client-side and server-side integrations.
