Tutorials on Function Components

Here is the second tutorial in our 6 part YouTube series on React Hooks. We've already seen that React Hooks are arguably the biggest fundamental change to happen to React since its inception. Learning Hooks brings you up to speed with this important update to React. Now in this second tutorial, we will teach you the ins and outs of using the useState hook, the most commonly used React Hook, and thus, one of the most important ones you should know. You will see that state management using the useState hook is in many cases more straightforward than using class-based components. Function components have come a long way since React v0.14. Introduced as a simpler syntax for defining stateless, presentational components, function components can now handle state via the useState Hook.
