State Management

State management refers to how you handle the data that affects the behavior and rendering of your application. React’s built-in state management is usually sufficient for small applications.

State in Class-Based Components

  • State is managed using this.state and updated using this.setState().

State in Functional Components

  • Use the useState hook to manage state in functional components.

Context API

  • The Context API is used to pass data through the component tree without having to pass props down manually at every level. Create a context with React.createContext(), provide it with a Provider component, and consume it with useContext or Context.Consumer.

Activity

  • Create a React application that uses both state management and the Context API. Implement a theme toggle feature where the theme is managed through context and updated with state.
