API Integration Hooks
Build production-ready data fetching hooks with caching, error handling, retries, and optimistic updates
jsx
// Basic fetch hook
function useFetch(url) {
const [data, setData] = useState(null);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true);
const [error, setError] = useState(null);
useEffect(() => {
const fetchData = async () => {
try {
const response = await fetch(url);
const result = await response.json();
setData(result);
} catch (err) {
setError(err);
} finally {
setLoading(false);
}
};
fetchData();
}, [url]);
return { data, loading, error };
