react-basic-hooks is a React hook API for react-basic.

Note: This API relies on React >=16.8.0. For more info on hooks, see React's documentation.

I recommend using PureScript's "qualified do" syntax while using this library (it's used in the examples, the React.do bits). It became available in the 0.12.2 compiler release.

This library provides the React.Basic.Hooks module, which can completely replace the React.Basic module. It borrows a few types from the current React.Basic module like ReactComponent and JSX to make it easy to use both versions in the same project. If we prefer this API over the existing react-basic API, we may eventually replace React.Basic with this implementation.

mkCounter :: Component Int
mkCounter = do
  component "Counter" \initialValue -> React.do
    counter /\ setCounter <- useState initialValue

    pure
      $ R.button
          { onClick: handler_ do
              setCounter (_ + 1)
          , children:
              [ R.text $ "Increment: " <> show counter ]
          }
