Todo List Application using the useState Hook in React


React is a popular JavaScript library used to build user interfaces. One of its main features is the useState hook, which allows you to manage state in functional components.

In this post, we'll walk through how to build a simple todo list application using the useState hook in React. The app will allow users to add, complete, and delete tasks from their todo list.

To get started, we'll need to create a new React app using create-react-app. This will give us a basic template for our app to build upon.

Next, we'll create a new component for our todo list. Inside this component, we'll use the useState hook to manage the state of our todo list. We'll also create functions to add, complete, and delete tasks from the list.

Once our todo list component is complete, we can render it in our main App component and test it out in the browser.

Overall, building a todo list application using the useState hook in React is a great way to learn how to manage state in functional components. It's a useful skill for any React developer to have, and can be applied to a wide range of applications beyond just todo lists.

To access the code for this todo list application, you can visit my GitHub repository. The code is available for you to view, clone, and customize to fit your own needs. I encourage you to check it out and explore how the useState hook is used to manage state in this React application. Happy Learning!
