How do I use hooks with higher-order components?

You can use hooks within higher-order components (HOCs) by ensuring that the HOC is a functional component. This allows you to utilize hooks like useState and useEffect.

Can you give me an example of a HOC using hooks?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

const withCounter = (WrappedComponent) => {
  return (props) => {
    const [count, setCount] = useState(0);

    const increment = () => setCount(count + 1);

    return <WrappedComponent count={count} increment={increment} {...props} />;
  };
};

This HOC adds a counter to any component it wraps.

What if I want to use multiple hooks in my HOC?

You can use multiple hooks in your HOC just like you would in a functional component. Just call them at the top level of your HOC. For example, you can combine useState and useEffect to manage state and side effects.

Are there any limitations when using hooks in HOCs?

Yes, you need to follow the rules of hooks, such as only calling them at the top level and not inside loops or conditions. Also, ensure that the HOC is a functional component.
