Learn React Hooks

Section 1: Introduction to Hooks

In the first part of the book, we will introduce and cover the basics of React and React Hooks, including why and how to use them. Following this, we will use our knowledge gained in a practical setting, to create a blog application using React Hooks.

In this section, we will cover the following chapters:

  • Chapter 1, Introducing React and React Hooks
  • Chapter 2, Using the State Hook
  • Chapter 3, Writing Your First Application with React Hooks

Key benefits

  • Explore effective strategies for migrating your state management from Redux and MobX to React Hooks
  • Integrate Hooks with React features such as Context and Suspense to add advanced functionality to your web apps
  • Create complex applications by combining multiple hooks

Description

React Hooks revolutionize how you manage state and effects in your web applications. They enable you to build simple and concise React.js applications, along with helping you avoid using wrapper components in your applications, making it easy to refactor code. This React book starts by introducing you to React Hooks. You will then get to grips with building a complex UI in React while keeping the code simple and extensible. Next, you will quickly move on to building your first applications with React Hooks. In the next few chapters, the book delves into various Hooks, including the State and Effect Hooks. After covering State Hooks and understanding how to use them, you will focus on the capabilities of Effect Hooks for adding advanced functionality to React apps. You will later explore the Suspense and Context APIs and how they can be used with Hooks. Toward the concluding chapters, you will learn how to integrate Redux and MobX with React Hooks. Finally, the book will help you develop the skill of migrating your existing React class components, and Redux and MobX web applications to Hooks. By the end of this book, you will be well-versed in building your own custom Hooks and effectively refactoring your React applications.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers who already know how to work with React and want to get started with learning React Hooks. Developers who are looking to migrate to React for its advanced features and capabilities will also find the book useful.

What you will learn

  • Understand the fundamentals of React Hooks and how they modernize state management in React apps
  • Build your own custom Hooks and learn how to test them
  • Use community Hooks for implementing responsive design and more
  • Learn the limitations of Hooks and what you should and shouldn't use them for
  • Get to grips with implementing React context using Hooks
  • Refactor your React-based web application, replacing existing React class components with Hooks
  • Use state management solutions such as Redux and MobX with React Hooks

This book is excellent! At work and in my personal projects I've always used class components, and I've been having a hard time learning to use hooks in a new NextJS app that I'm building for fun. After riding the struggle bus for awhile trying to do some really basic stuff, I just decided to bite the bullet and buy a book or a course to figure out how to write React apps in this new style. The first video tutorial I attempted watch on the subject on YouTube put me to sleep, literally. So after I woke up from my long nap I started hunting for books instead. Fortunately, I happened to find this 700 page beast of a manual and am now on my way! So if you find yourself in a similar situation needing to re-learn React I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to learn about Hooks & Functional Components.

I've read probably 10-15 react books at this point and I'd have to say in terms of theory/conceptual understanding this book is probably the best I've read when it comes to react hooks vs react class-based components.The book is very well written and the first few chapters are reasonably forgiving to newer react developers and even provide the reader with an under-the-hood understanding of useState for example by basically creating it from scratch.The one downside is it seems to be intended for people who have already finished a few react applications and are now tasked with evaluating components and possibly refactoring class-based components to react hooks. So, personally I would recommend it to mid to senior-level developers or very advanced beginners.

Simple, elegant, and to the point. That author does a fantastic job of explaining what hooks are in React and also goes into making your customer hooks. This book deserves to be in every React developer's library.

This is a good book for an intermediate React developer (ES6 familiarity, NPM, etc. is assumed). The author starts with a nice exploration of how useState() is actually implemented "under the hood" by React, which is something I had been wanting to understand (this explains why the order in which hooks are called is so essential).After explaining the useState hook fundamentals, he does a pretty good overview of how to use each of the new Hooks included in React 17. He also devotes a chapter to a variety of useful 3rd party "community" hooks, and a chapter each to using Redux and MobX with hooks.The bulk of the book is structured around building a very simple blog SPA. It's far too simple for a real production site, but it serves as a decent example. The book is essentially a very long step-by-step tutorial. Along the way, the author does a nice job of explaining how to do things with Hooks that you previously did with class-based React Component lifecycle events (componentDidMount, etc.), giving various examples of migrating from the old style to hooks.My only 2 complaints about this book are pretty minor, but I pulled a star for them:1) Although the author steps you thru a lot of good code examples in great detail (line-by-line in many cases), he never includes the complete finished code sample at the end. Yes, you can download all the code from GitHub, but if you're offline (or just lazy), you never see the completed full example code in the book, so you just have to keep all the incremental changes in your mind and imagine it as a full script.2) Since this is a tutorial-style book - it's almost exclusively a "tactical implementation" book, and as such is very opinionated and follows a 1-track path. I wish he'd included more theory in every chapter (ie. pros/cons, gotchas, best practices, different approaches, etc.). It's just not that kind of a book, which is OK ... that just leaves room for the 2nd edition to be even better. ;-)Overall this is a very good introduction to hooks, and will give any competent React developer a solid start for using Hooks in their web apps.

But I really wish the author could publish errata. Starting Page 74, one can see some obvious errors as the app would crash. Comparing with the example code on the Github, they are very different. Chapter 5 were even worse, a lot of steps were omitted. One has to compare with the example code to see what's really going on.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
