What are common mistakes when using context hooks in React?

Some common mistakes include not providing a default value, overusing context, and not memoizing context values.

Can you explain why overusing context is a mistake?

Overusing context can lead to performance issues, as it causes unnecessary re-renders of components that consume the context.

What should I do instead of overusing context?

Instead, consider using local state or Redux for managing state that doesn't need to be shared across many components.

How can I properly memoize context values?

You can use the useMemo hook to memoize context values, ensuring that they only change when their dependencies change.
