Also after React v 16.8+ you have an ability to use hooks
import React, {useState} from 'react';
const ControlledInputs = () => {
const [firstName, setFirstName] = useState(false);
const handleSubmit = (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
if (firstName) {
console.log('firstName :>> ', firstName);
}
};
return (
<>
<form onSubmit={handleSubmit}>
<label htmlFor="firstName">Name: </label>
<input
type="text"
id="firstName"
name="firstName"
value={firstName}
onChange={(e) => setFirstName(e.target.value)}
/>
<button type="submit">add person</button>
</form>
</>
);
};
