How can I use HOCs with React hooks?

You can use Higher-Order Components (HOCs) with React hooks by wrapping your functional components. HOCs can pass props and manage state, which can then be utilized by hooks.

Can you give me an example of a HOC that uses hooks?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

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

This HOC provides a count and setCount to the wrapped component.

What are the benefits of using HOCs with hooks?

Using HOCs with hooks allows for better code reusability and separation of concerns. It helps in managing state and side effects in a clean way.

Are there any drawbacks to using HOCs?

Yes, HOCs can lead to 'wrapper hell' if overused, making the component tree harder to read. It's important to use them judiciously.
