How do I use React Context with Hooks?

You can use React Context with Hooks by creating a context using createContext, then using useContext to access it in your components.

Can you show me a simple example?

Sure! First, create a context: const MyContext = createContext();. Then, wrap your component tree with MyContext.Provider and use useContext(MyContext) in any child component.

What if I want to update the context value?

You can use a state variable in the provider component and pass the state and a function to update it as the value of the context.

Is there a way to avoid prop drilling with this?

Yes, using React Context allows you to avoid prop drilling by providing a way to share values between components without passing props through every level.
