Destructuring is a useful technique in React for handling form input values. It allows you to simplify the code by extracting form input values and handling them more efficiently.

Assuming you have a simple React component with a form:
import React, { useState } from 'react';

function MyForm() {
const [formData, setFormData] = useState({
name: '',
email: '',
});

const handleChange = (e) => {
const { name, value } = e.target;
setFormData({ ...formData, [name]: value });
};

const handleSubmit = (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
// Do something with formData
console.log(formData);
};

return (

Name:

Email:

Submit

);
}

export default MyForm;

In this example, destructuring is used in two places:

1. Destructuring Event Object: In the handleChange function, the event object (e) is destructured to get the name and value properties of the input field being changed. This allows you to update the corresponding field in the formData state using the input's name attribute.

2. Destructuring Form State: When rendering the input fields, the values are extracted from the formData state using destructuring. This makes it easier to set the value prop of each input element.
