Module 1

Two types of components:

export default MyComponent 
        extends React.Component {
    state = { counter: 0 }
    render() {
        const { counter } = this.state;
        return (
            <div>
                <h1>Count: {counter}</h1>
                <input
                    value={counter}
                    onChange={(
                        {target:{value}}
                    ) => this.setState(
                        {counter: value}
                    )}

Custom Hooks?

Module 1

export default (initialData) => {
    const [hasPosts, setHasPosts] = useState(false);
    const [posts, setPosts] = useState(initialData);
    useEffect(
        () => setHasPosts(posts.length > 0),
        [posts]
    );
    const [onChange, setOnChange] = useState(null);
    useEffect(
        () => onChange = ({ target: { value } }) =>
            setPosts(value),
        []
    );
    return { hasPosts, posts, setPosts, onChange };
}

Custom Hooks!

Module 1

export default (initData) => {
    const [id, setId] = useState(initData);
    const [posts, setPosts] = useState([]);
    useEffect(
        () => {
            const subscription = API.subscribe(id, setPosts);
            return () => subscription.unsubscribe();
        },
        [id];
    );
    return { id, posts, setId };

Module 3

Complex example

Get all users

And for each user get all their posts

And for each post get all comments

And for each comment, get its author

All we need to render is all the author's name and id

Module 3

Complex example

Get all users

And for each user get all their posts

And for each post get all comments

And for each comment, get its author

Module 3

Complex example

Get all users (N)

And for each user get all their posts (N*P(N))

And for each post get all comments (N*P(N)*C(P(N)))

And for each comment, get its author (N*P(N)*C(P(N)))

Result: N + N*P(N)(1 + 2 * C(P(N))

Complex example

Module 3

query {
    users {
        posts {
            comments {
