If i'm having 3 variables to handle with useState in react is doing this:

const [ user , setUser ] = useState({
name : '',
phone : '',
age : ''
})
setUser({...user, phone: value})

Or this :

const [ phone , setPhone] = useState('')
const [ name , setPName] = useState('')
const [ age , setAge] = useState('')

setPhone(value)

Is there any différence in term of performance ? Which approach is more appropriate ?

CodePudding user response：

It depends on how you use them. If you use it in a form, it might be more convenient to have them in a single object. Technically, react has a watcher system that will only update what needs to be updated and therefore not re-render what hasn't changed. Here is a link to the official documentation that can help you understand when to use object based vs single state elements.

CodePudding user response：

to manage complex and nested objects and also if you have lots of states, it's better to use useReducer like this:

import { useReducer } from 'react';
const initialState = { name: '', phone: '', age: 0 };

const reducer = (state, action) => {
  switch (action.type) {
    case 'name':
      return { ...state, name: action.payload };
    case 'phone':
      return { ...state, phone: action.payload };
    case 'age':
      return { ...state, age: action.payload };
    default:
      return state;
  }
};
const LoginPage = () => {
  const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(reducer, initialState);

  const onChangeNameHandler = (e) => {
    dispatch({type: 'name', payload: e.target.value})
  }
  return (
    <input value={state.name} onChange = {onChangeNameHandler} />
  )
}

And then you have all states in "state" that we define at first ex:

console.log(state.name) // name

I suggest you read this article that compares both useReducer and useState here.
