React 18: guide with controlled components implementation guide state when using a custom hook
I'm having a hard time understanding I'm experimenting with I'm trying to configure I've been banging my head against this for hours... I'm experiencing an scenario with controlled components in my React 18 application that uses a custom hook for form handling. The custom hook seems to be failing to update the state correctly when the input values change, leading to a scenario where the UI doesn't reflect the latest state. Here's the hook I've created: ```javascript import { useState } from 'react'; const useForm = (initialValues) => { const [values, setValues] = useState(initialValues); const handleChange = (e) => { const { name, value } = e.target; setValues(prevValues => ({ ...prevValues, [name]: value })); }; return [values, handleChange]; }; ``` I'm using this hook in a simple form like this: ```javascript import React from 'react'; import useForm from './useForm'; const MyForm = () => { const [formValues, handleChange] = useForm({ username: '', email: '' }); const handleSubmit = (e) => { e.preventDefault(); console.log(formValues); }; return ( <form onSubmit={handleSubmit}> <input type="text" name="username" value={formValues.username} onChange={handleChange} /> <input type="email" name="email" value={formValues.email} onChange={handleChange} /> <button type="submit">Submit</button> </form> ); }; ``` The scenario arises when I type into the username input field. The console logs the initial state instead of the updated state, and I get the following behavior in my console: "Warning: A component is changing an uncontrolled input of type text to be controlled. Input elements should not switch from uncontrolled to controlled (or vice versa)." This leads me to believe there's a question with how I'm managing controlled components with the hook. I've verified that `formValues` is indeed updating correctly by logging it inside the `handleChange` function, but it doesn't seem to reflect in the UI. I tried using `useEffect` to monitor changes to `formValues`, but that didn't resolve the scenario. Any insights on why the controlled input is not reflecting the updated state would be greatly appreciated! This is part of a larger CLI tool I'm building. Is there a better approach? I've been using Javascript for about a year now. Is this even possible? My development environment is Windows 11. How would you solve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
