React Hook Form is one of the most popular libraries for building forms in React apps with over 39k stars on GitHub. The library has no external dependencies according to Bundle Phobia.

The idea here is to first define an array of field names for each provider. We'll also need a map with more detailed information about each field. This map will contain the field name, label, type, and validation options. We'll use this map to render the form fields and also to validate the form. Finally, we'll have a Form component that will render the form fields based on their type and handle the form submission. We'll use React Hook Form to handle the form state and validation.

Now we need to install React Hook Form because that is the package we are going to use for building our form. We also need to install the package for SendGrid. cd into the sendgrid-contact-form folder and then run this command to install the packages:

Imagine someone unknowingly unleashing heavy computation on a component without useMemo. That computation will run on every component re-render. Not only that, The dependency array in your hooks (useEffect, useMemo, useCallback) are also checked in each re-render. It's like a double whammy for performance pitfalls! I know that you can avoid this by some technique like what react-hook-form done, but remember thats an extra complexity.

But now, all those difficulties are gone since I found React Hook Form and zod.

This will greatly simplify the handling of AJAX forms in React - like for instance for a search form. But again, this may not be enough to get rid of third-party libraries like React Hook Form, which does much more than just handle form submission (validation, side effects, etc).

We could consider to do all these steps specifically for each data-set; of course this isn't an efficient approach due to the amount of repeated code involved. So what if we could abstract all this in a single management? A way to do this could be using a simple configuration in which we specify each aspect for each input (its type, validations required and so on). And we can do this thanks to the extreme flexibility provided by React Hook Form.

Now, it's time to consume our API. We'll use React for this tutorail, but feel free to use any other framework you prefer; the process remains the same. Additionally, we'll utilize SWR to fetch data from the API and TypeScript to ensure type safety.

'use client'; import FormPostUpdate from './components/FormPostUpdate/FormPostUpdate'; import FormDelete from '../app/components/FormDelete/FormDelete'; import { useFetch } from './hooks/useFetch'; import { useFetchSWR } from './hooks/useFetchSWR'; import Chart from './components/Chart/Chart'; export default function Home() { // Uncomment the code below and comment out the "useFetch" code if your want to use SWR for data fetching --> https://swr.vercel.app/docs/with-nextjs // const { data, error, isLoading } = useFetchSWR( // 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/anime/' // ); // Uses the Fetch API for data fetching const { data, error, isLoading } = useFetch( 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/anime/' ); if (error) return

An error has occurred.

; if (isLoading) return

Loading...

; console.log(data); return ( <>

POST: Add Anime Form

UPDATE: Update Anime Form

Select an ID from the list. You can change the data for Anime ID, Name and Release.

DELETE: Delete Anime Form

GET: Anime Data List

{data.map((anime) => (

• {anime.anime_name}

• ID: {anime.id}
• Anime ID: {anime.anime_id}
• Anime Release Year: {anime.anime_release}

))}

); }

There are libraries like SWR, RTK Query, and React Query that simplify the data fetching process on the client and take care of the state, error handling, caching, and re-fetching for you.

Then install the package SWR into your application with the following command:

SWR

I would suggest taking a look at SWR [0]. I think it strikes a very nice balance between using fetch and something more heavy-handed like React Query.
