State Management in Class
Components
Class components have been the traditional way of implementing state management in React before
the introduction of the hooks API. The state in class components can be modified, mounted and
unmounted with component life cycles methods such as componentDidMount() and
componentWillUnmount()
State Management in Functional
Components

Functional components in React can also manage their state using hooks, including the useState hook.
Hooks make it easier to manage state in functional components, making the code more organized and
easier to read.
Using the useState Hook
The useState is a hook that is used to manage state in React Functional Components
The hook can handle both single and multiple states.
Here is an example of how to use useState: const [count, setCount] = useState(0);
