How do I debug the useEffect hook in React?

I'm having trouble with the useEffect hook in my React app. How can I debug it?

Debugging the useEffect hook can be tricky. First, ensure that your dependencies array is set correctly. What issues are you facing?

I think it's not running when I expect it to. I have some state variables in the dependencies array.

If the state variables are not changing, useEffect won't run. Try logging the values inside the effect to see if they change.

I added console logs, and it seems like the effect runs only on mount. What should I do?

Check if your dependencies are correctly set. If you want it to run on state changes, ensure those states are included in the array.

Got it! I'll check that. Thanks for the help!
