}useRef is an kind of alternative to useState hook , with useRef you can get an reference to an element and than use the DOM/JS properties to modify it .
You can even call useRef as an tool which is used to apply all the DOM properties as you were doing in Javascript before coming to React.
If you use useRef than this apparoch is called un-controlled components.function TextInputWithFocusButton() {
const inputEl = useRef(null);
const onButtonClick = () => {
// `current` 指向已挂载到 DOM 上的文本输入元素
inputEl.current.focus();
};
return (
<>
<input ref={inputEl} type="text" />
<button onClick={onButtonClick}>Focus the input</button>
</>
);
}class MyComponent extends React.Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.myRef = React.createRef();
}
render() {
return <div ref={this.myRef} />;
}
}const refContainer = useRef(initialValue);
//useRef returns a mutable ref object whose .current property is initialized to the passed argument (initialValue).
//The returned object will persist for the full lifetime of the component.
