Hi React Team :)
After reading a first time the hooks documentation, I didn't find how to skip the first useEffect call at the initial mount. Fortunately Dan directed me to the paragraph "Can I run an effect only on updates?" from FAQ. :)
Maybe I was the first to feel a little bit confused with that. So I propose to either :
- This paragraph shouldn't be in the FAQ, because the documentation it's dense (that's a good thing, thanks for the job) and you'll probably not going to the FAQ after reading a first time.
(or)
- This paragraph can stay in the FAQ, but we should add term like
componentDidMount, "avoid intial mount" to make search easier.
If the idea sounds good for you guys. I can suggest you a alternative text :)
Thank you again for your job :)
