Hooks

Hooks provide stateful components, without needing to use classes.

Prior to the advent of Hooks, function components were used for presentation purposes, and classes were used when working with state/logic. In a nutshell, hooks add state to functional components.

Benefits

Hooks provide a number of benefits which you don't currently get with 'stateful' class components, including;

• Cleaner components - hooks provides a way for related logic to be grouped in sensible methods, opposed to the prescribed lifecycle methods bundled into React class components.

• A better way for sharing functionality - stateful logic can be taken away from components, providing easier reuse and testability. Classes handled all logic directly in the component.
