Topic:
React Hooks were introduced at React Conf October 2018 as a proposal for React 16.7 as a way to use state and side-effects in React function components. Whereas function components have been called functional stateless components (FSC) before, they are finally able to use state with React Hooks.
During this workshop, Michail will explain how React Hooks can be used in function components by showcasing common React Hooks such as the state and effect hooks by example.
