29 |

{this.state.count}

30 | 31 | 35 | 36 | 40 |
41 | ); 42 | } 43 | } 44 | 45 | ``` 46 | 47 | ## Use in Create React App 48 | `create-react-app` ships with [`transform-class-properties`](https://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/transform-class-properties/) installed. 49 | 50 | This can make working with local state faster and less ceremonious. 51 | 52 | ```js 53 | class Counter extends React.Component { 54 | // don't mess with the constructor to initialize state. 55 | 56 | state = { count: 0 } 57 | 58 | // create instance methods for better perf and re-use. 59 | 60 | increment = () => this.setState(({ count }) => ({ count: count + 1 })) 61 | decrement = () => this.setState(({ count }) => ({ count: count - 1 })) 62 | 63 | // the clean code you've always dreamed of. 64 | 65 | render() { 66 | return ( 67 |
68 |

{this.state.count}

69 | 70 | 71 | 72 |
73 | ); 74 | } 75 | } 76 | ``` 77 | 78 | ## API 79 | `setstate` ships with 2 APIs. 80 | I know that sounds complicated but it's not. 81 | 82 | ### Object form 83 | This is best used when setting a new value or blowing away a previous value: 84 | 85 | ```js 86 | this.setState({ name: "Michael" }) 87 | ``` 88 | 89 | Here's what it looks like in response to an input's change event. 90 | 91 | ```js 92 | // this.state.name gets replaced for every onChange 93 | this.setState({ name: target.value })} 97 | /> 98 | ``` 99 | 100 | ### Function form 101 | This is best used when transitioning existing state (like the counter above). 102 | 103 | ```js 104 | this.setState(previousState => ({ count: previousState.count + 1 })); 105 | ``` 106 | 107 | This is what it looks like in response to a button press: 108 | 109 | ```js 110 |
