How can I implement a reconnection strategy for WebSocket in React?

You can implement a reconnection strategy by using a combination of state management and effect hooks. Start by tracking the connection status.

What state should I track for the connection?

You should track the connection status (connected, disconnected) and possibly the number of reconnection attempts.

How do I handle reconnection attempts?

You can use a setTimeout function to attempt reconnection after a delay, increasing the delay with each failed attempt.

Can you provide a code example?

Sure! Here's a simple example: useEffect to manage the WebSocket connection and a function to handle reconnections.
