react-setstate README

This Visual Studio Code extension simplifies the creation of React useState hooks by generating code snippets based on user input.

Features

• State Declaration: Easily declare React state using the useState hook.
• Automatic Typing: Optionally infer TypeScript types based on the provided default value.
• Supports Object Declaration: Handles object-like structures for default values.

Usage

• Open your react JavaScript or TypeScript file in Visual Studio Code.

• Select the area where you want to create the useState hook.

• Trigger the extension using the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P) and search for React useState.

  • Windows: Ctrl+Shift+P
  • Linux: Ctrl+Shift+P
  • MaxOs: ⇧+⌘+P

• Enter the state name and, optionally, provide a default value separated by a comma (stateName, defaultValue).

Note

• When providing object-like structures as default values, use a format like {key: "value"}.
• The extension handles various default value types, including strings, numbers, booleans, and object-like structures.
• In case of any issues or incorrect input, the extension defaults to treating the value as a string.

Installation

• Open Visual Studio Code.
• Go to the Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X or Cmd+Shift+X).
• Search for "React useState".
• Click Install to install the extension.
