The React useState Hook allows us to track state in a function component.
State generally refers to data or properties that need to be tracking in an application.
Import useState
To use the useState Hook, we first need to import it into our component.
Example:
At the top of your component, import the useState Hook.
import { useState } from "react";
Notice that we are destructuring useState from react as it is a named export.
To learn more about destructuring, check out the ES6 section.
