Question
This question revolves around the most frequently used hook in React development.
Why did the useState hook feel so important? Because every time something changed, it was called upon!
Objective
Your task is to implement the logic for managing tasks – including storing, adding, and deleting them within a local state variable. Focus on functionality, and don't worry about styling, although you're welcome to add some if you wish. TailwindCSS is already set up for your convenience.
Requirements
- Storing Tasks: Implement a state variable to hold the list of tasks.
- Adding Tasks: Write the logic to add new tasks to the state.
- Deleting Tasks: Write the logic to remove tasks based on their id.
Working with Task IDs
In this question, each task will need a unique identifier (ID). For simplicity, you can use Math.random() to generate a pseudo-random ID for new tasks. Here's a quick way to do it:
const newTaskId = Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 9);This will create a string that's reasonably unique for our purposes. However, keep in mind that in real-world applications, more robust methods are recommended for generating unique IDs (see resources).
Bonus Task
- Implement a clear all tasks feature.
